LOS ANGELES -- The opening of the Erotic Museum on Hollywood Boulevard has been pushed back to January, but the museum has spent $250,000 on new artworks for the festivities, officials said Monday.
The museum is the second of its kind in the nation, following New York City's Museum of Sex.
The brainchild of two Russian immigrants, it's in a 6,000-square-foot, two- story building at 6741 Hollywood Blvd. -- a stone's throw from the Hollywood & Highland complex.
The museum includes a range of erotic art, including a collection of dry-point etchings by Picasso, as well as sex-themed displays, antique "pleasure machines" and a screening room/performance space.
According to curator Eric Singley, the new acquisitions include works from Julian Murphy and Jason Mecier, whose mosaics include a portrait of Jerry Seinfeld done in cereal, the comedian's favorite food.
