T-Shirt #017 by Sean Vegezzi

T-Shirt #017 in DoBeDo's 'Photographers T-Shirt Series’ is ‘The Curious, The Suckered and The Regulars’ by Sean Vegezzi.

An erect penis goes up against the new 1 World Trade Center. It stands like a sentry over Lower Manhattan, self-assured that its presence symbolises the defeat of New York grime of yore: open-air sex markets, emotionally disturbed wanderers, perpetrators of both serious and petty crime. The cock’s message is not one of nostalgia, nor does it romanticise the idea of an unsafe city. A timely erection can outlive concrete, glass and steel.

The T-Shirt comes with a free poster with text by Sean Vegezzi and is designed by Edward Quarmby.

DoBeDo's 'Photographers T-Shirt Series' started in 2009 and has included over thirty photographers over the last fourteen years. T-Shirts are also available via our 'Photographers T-Shirt Series Subscription.'
