"Cache sex" in show to
Spazio-Tempo
Ancona - via Valle Miano 5
Inauguration Thursday 18
December 18.00 p.m.
The place certain is not a sexy shop neither a
hardcore place, it is a real museum where, for the first time in Italy,
50 "underpantses" are exposed or better 50 "cache sex" that, literally
translating from French, are anything else than cover sex, made in the
last century, of one of the most famous Camerun populations.
The "Kirdi" are a group of etnie, not mussulmane, of the North of
Camerun, that as only ornament uses the "cache sex" composed of beads in
glass and shells "cauri" (cipree) applied on the cotton that, with their
movement, create dynamism during the dances and get further the bad
spirits.
Two rare samples of "cache sex" will be also introduced, of the
beginning of '900 called "Pikuran" in iron (similar to real belts of
chastity), exposed in Florence, in "Palazzo Strozzi" in 2001, in a
memorable etnographic.
These garments are real masterpieces with geometric sketches and
variedly colored and they have inspired artists of whole world.

"cache sex" in an extraordinary show in the unbelievable context of this
