jockstrap.jpglcclogo.gifOne of the pleasures of my job is partnership with the London College of Communication which teaches photography, amongst other things. Coming up, as it were, is an exhibition of artistic jockstraps.“Strapped: The Art Of The Decorated Jockstrap”, is at the Eckersley Gallery, LCC, Elephant and Castle from January 21st:

“Corbett’s work makes strong statements about men – a ‘fisting’ jockstrap made from red bandanas and ‘army’, covered with gun-toting ‘my weapon is bigger than yours’ soldiers. The mock medieval Cum-A-Lot is alarmingly regal: family jewels shielded by a plumed coat of arms.”
