The Absolute Fetish & BDSM Festival in Greece

The Greek fetish and BDSM community has thousands of members. That may be a surprise if you consider the population of the country but, if you check the most popular forums, you will find more than twenty thousand people. Most of them are in the two major cities: Athens and Thessalonika.

Recently, some alternative clubs hosted the community and presented the first BDSM shows in Greece. Thanks to Sin City (ex. Underworld) and Second Skin clubs, many people had the opportunity to enjoy Greek lifestyle performers. It was time the fetish evolution from Europe and US came to Greece.

So, the Greek Fetish and BDSM Scene made a big step forward. After the success of the first Absolute Fetish & BDSM Festival, the event came back with a vengeance. Taking place during the second Athens Erotica Expo, the Festival was set up in a very special and large space. This year, it featured two stages, live DJ sets, a large public dungeon, a dark room, a foot fetish tent, a bar and a fetish photo and sculpture exhibit.

Thousands of people visited the Festival and emerged in a very different dark world, where they came in touch with their darkest fantasies and desires. The dungeon was busy with people playing. On stage, the visitors had the opportunity to witness live performances by Domina Lola, Prema, Miss Enfer, Omega Red, Εlectra, Dennis, Tyfeas, Phoenixxx, Elizabeth, Goddess Isabelle, and Jacqueline. All presented their work, including shibari, fetish, medical, S/M, domination/submission, and cross dressing performances. The performances were coordinated and directed by Fetish Goddess Eva.

The fetish / BDSM Scene in Greece is still in its infancy, with a small community of people, trying to improve things and help promote a different lifestyle to the public. Most of the people involved are mostly active on the internet and have few opportunities to live their desires in reality.

The event was organized by Absolute Fetish (www.absolute-fetish.com), in association with Megadance Show & Entertainment (www.megandance.gr). Absolute Fetish is an active group of lifestylers, with a common love for BDSM and its expressions. They have a different approach to performing, in the sense that they present what they experience in their personal everyday life. Each appearance, each show has wicked imagination, a great passion and a kinky soul of its own. Their goal is to bring the public closer to a creative, vivid, pan-hedonistic group of people, and expose it to a wide range of BDSM and kinky activities, a variety of fetish games, and letting them discover their own.

The crowning of this effort are the appearances of the first Greek performer, Domina LoLa in the fetish scene of Amsterdam (Wasteland and Clinic). This year, she will present her show at a Torture Garden night in Athens.

Alternative and fetish clothing is not also something we had in the past and Greece was suffering a complete absence of fetish and BDSM fashion. The 4-showgirls store came to fill this gap and the owner, George Manos, is also the Manager of megandance.gr, promoting the most important BDSM and fetish events in Greece. A few of the most important shops in Athens are: Aroma (www.aroma-sexshop.gr), Pink Panther (www.pinkpanther.gr), Paradise (www.sexparadise.gr).

L.A.’s Club Fetish Nation Returns

Hollywood, California – Club Fetish Nation returns Saturday, February 6, 2010, to bring the darkness down on Circus in Hollywood, California with a shout out to those in (and out) of uniform.

Co-producer of Fetish Nation, Brandt Stebbins of Intense Management lays down the law, “I had repeated requests during our last two events of 2009 to bring on a uniform theme for one of our upcoming Saturday extravaganzas, and we decided that our return in 2010 was perfect timing. Cop, military, fireman. . .  whatever your uniform fetish, pull it on and let’s party. I’m glad to bring the show back in this brand new decade. Fetish Nation is evolving into a destination for those that want to experience live play in an open and up-beat environment.”

Sinning in LA magazine reporter, Chase Maximus gives his take on Fetish Nation, “We found another darkened corner of this town that a lot of people won’t see. They’ll stay in their comfortable spaces, wearing respectable clothes and keeping their days filled with safety and their nights free from discovery. All of this, of course, leads to a certain sense of sorrow. . . There’s power in the unknown, and there are so many new experiences to have on any given night here in Los Angeles that even those who have come here from places far and cold where people live like Puritans can have their perspectives changed with ten dollars and an open mind.”

While the club night may be filled with decadence Stebbins says, “One of the things that I and my partners in Fetish Nation have been working on is bringing a sense of social conscience to our events, going forward into 2010. We are working on a benefit in April for B.A.B.E., the adult industry breast cancer awareness organization, spearheaded by Taylor Wane. We are also very happy to have our new sponsor, Adultspace.com along, as they have set themselves apart from other adult social sites, by taking a stance for AIDS/HIV awareness and other civic minded causes. Make no mistake however; Fetish Nation will always be about people that play on the edge. We just do it with social awareness.”

Club Fetish Nation is powered by the generous sponsorship of AdultSpace.com, Stockroom.com and Sticker Chick, among others.

Club Fetish Nation is held every 1st Saturday of the month at the Circus Disco, 6655 Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood. The doors open at 9:00 PM, and the party doesn’t stop until 3:00 AM.

Sponsorships are available for the April 2010 “Boobie Ball”, to benefit B.A.B.E., hosted by Taylor Wane. For more information, please contact Stebbins by email to, brandt@intensemanagementinc.com

Detroit, MI (OPENPRESS) September 24, 2009 — Fantasy and fetish photographer Dirk Hooper will have the piece titled “Inked” on display at Dirty Show 10.5 this coming weekend. The Dirty Show, currently celebrating its tenth anniversary, is a juried international erotic art exhibition that presents artwork of over 200 artists from around the world. This is Dirk Hooper’s fourth appearance at the event.

“Inked” is an extremely limited edition giclee print, custom printed by award-winning fine artist Robert Henry. The piece features a photograph of Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau in a pose that showcases the extensive tattoo artwork the model has on her naked back. The process Dame Lebeau goes through to select an artist for her work is very important, “I first realize an image that I simply can’t get out of my head and take it to one of my artists to plan out placement and style. Trust is a big part of it.” Dame Lebeau notes, “My John Lennon portrait was done by Kat von D in Dallas and my back piece of Krishna and Radha is the genius of Eric Poland at Electric Eye Tattoo in Tulsa.”

The collaborative efforts of model Dame Lebeau and photographer Dirk Hooper have yielded work that has been displayed in galleries and events across America and Europe. Dame Lebeau says, “There is an ease when it comes to working with Dirk Hooper. He makes me feel comfortable and is always open to any ideas or lack of ideas I have about a shoot. We gained many great images from our projects together and I am hoping for many more to come.”

“Inked” will be on display at Dirty Show 10.5, September 25th – September 27th, and again October 2nd and October 3rd at Bert’s Warehouse Theater, located at 2739 Russell Street, in Detroit, Michigan. In addition to erotic artwork, the event will have performances from burlesque troupes and various other activities. For more information about the Dirty Show, please visit the official website www.DirtyShow.org.

Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau and photographer Dirk Hooper are both available for interviews through Sight Key Studios. Please make inquiries through info@sightkey.com.

Dirk Hooper is a world renowned fantasy and fetish photographer, fine artist, graphic designer and writer whose work has been described as “forbidden tales to rival the likes of H.P. Lovecraft and the Marquis de Sade.” Dirk’s publishing credits include such diverse media as comic books, music CDs, art books and slick fetish magazines. He has also cultivated a reputation as a fine artist in established venues like the prestigious Fred Jones Jr. Art Museum and as an underground visionary in galleries like the Electric Chair, “Fetish Project” in Brussels, Belgium and “Siberia” in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Dirk has work in the permanent collection of the Kinsey Institute based at Indiana University. Dirk is the CEO of Sight Key Studios Incorporated, a photography studio and media company based in Oklahoma City.

No boners about it at Up Your Alley Fetish Fair

Even among San Francisco fetish fetes, the Up Your Alley street fair stands alone. The raunchier and more gay-centric cousin of the Folsom Street Fair is a huge event on the leather community calendar, with public floggings, pee and pony play, fellatio, and intercourse all part of the package. It’s a “voyeur’s paradise,” observes Supervisor (and mayoral hopeful) Bevan Dufty, a regular attendee (but not participant, we should note).

But Up Your Alley is being forced to clean up its act after several people complained to police about public indecency laws being violated at last year’s event.

Does that mean that there will be no naughtiness at this year’s SOMA sexfest on Dore Alley? No, master!

“You’ll definitely still see spankings, and floggings, and play piercings — all the things to which people are accustomed to seeing,” organizer Demetri Moshoyannis said, describing the new rules. But there is a, ahem, hard line which shall not be crossed, lest fairgoers be ejected from the two-block fetish fest: an exposed, erect penis. Public blow jobs are also forbidden, although event security will be handing out free passes to nearby “Blow Buddies” where couples can get more intimate indoors.

Moshoyannis says the new rules should please decency- and deviance-seekers alike: “You can see some pretty extreme scenes that don’t expose any genitals.” What about pissing? “If someone pisses in their pants? I’m not going to do anything about that.”

This is all well and fine with the SFPD. Lieutenant Nicole Greely says police don’t plan to have much more of a presence at Up Your Alley on Sunday than the 14 officers last year, and will continue to be hands-off and let the event police itself (so no cop fantasies, sorry).

But you can’t please everybody. Mike Hughes, a gay man and self-described “member of the community,” thinks public sex will happen again this year despite the new rules, and that reflects badly on the gay community as a whole (and may have helped Proposition 8′s cause). “Public nudity is fine,” he says, “but golden showers in the goddamned street?”

Hughes complained about last year’s event to the police and the mayor’s office: “It’s not what they do, it’s where they do it. It holds up the rest of us to ridicule.”
