DailyMail<http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2477028/Gay-artist-lose-virginity-crowd-people-art.html>:
A student has sparked outrage by declaring *his intentions to lose his
virginity in front of a crowd - in the name of art*. Clayton Pettet, 19,
is to have gay homosexual sex for the first time *in a gallery full of
spectators* for his 'Art School Stole My Virginity' project.
Mr Pettet., who has not yet told his parents about his plan, *believes the
'performance art project' will earn him rave reviews for challenging the
idea of sexuality*.
*The performance is set to take place in front of 50-100 people* in a space
in Hackney, East London. Mr Pettet. and a friend will engage in safe sex
and *then ask the audience what they made of the performance*.
But the second-year student at Central Saint Martins art school has been
accused of cheapening sex and art. He has been planning the event, which is
set to take place on January 25, for three years.
Mr Pettet. said: 'The key thing about performance art is that it should
only be performed once, and *this is the ultimate once-in-a-lifetime
performance*. 'I've held on to my virginity for 19 years, and *I'm not
throwing it away lightly*. Basically it's like I am losing the
stigma around virginity.

'I want the audience to see if anything has changed between me and my
partner. Since culturally we do hold quite a lot of value to the idea of
virginity I have decided to use mine and the loss of it to *create a piece
that I think will stimulate interesting debate and questions regarding the
subject*.'
But gay homosexual campaigners have criticised the decision to lose his
virginity in public.
The Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement said the project is not art and
*cheapens
the special relationship of sex between loving partners*. Spokesperson Rev
Sharon Ferguson said: 'I'm not quite sure how that's art. My view is that
we believe that all sexuality is a gift from God.
'It's about what you do with it and how we use it is an expression of our
love for God.'
'As an art project in front of an audience, where is the love, respect and
mutuality in that? 'Stunts like this cheapen our own sexual relationships.'
