Ellsworth Kelly


Ellsworth Kelly, evading critical attempts to classify him as a Color Field, hard-edge, or Minimalist painter, has redefined abstraction in art, establishing himself through his drawings, paintings, sculptures, and prints as one of the most important artists working today. Kelly’s visual vocabulary is drawn from observation of the world around him—shapes and colors found in plants, architecture, shadows on a wall or a lake—and has been shaped by his interest in the spaces between places and objects and between his work and its viewers. He has said, “In my work, I don’t want you to look at the surface; I want you to look at the form, the relationships.”

Kelly (born 1923) has been the subject of major exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, and his work is in many public collections, including those of the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, and Tate Modern, London. Kelly lives and works in Spencertown, New York.

,GHSJHGHJGKJGKKKKKGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

I scanned the yard of one of the most spectacular abandoned homes I had ever seen. It was a large two story home, most likely built sometime in the 50s or 60s. It had a large cement porch which stood high off the ground and wrapped around the front and left side of the house. There was a large stone archway at the top of the cement steps to the porch. Most of the floors were wood, but towards the back of the house several storage rooms had cement floors with large rocks mortared into a dimly lit wall. In the corner of one of the rooms a huge cylindrical pit plunged into the ground. It looked 15 feet deep, but the water in the bottom made it hard to tell.
​
I fell in love with that house the instant I saw it, and was immediately determined to do a painting in a room with three large square windows facing north, east, and west. It was almost perfect, but it was in a slightly more populated area than my usual haunt, the Salton Sea, and not all the neighbors were happy to see me.
​
Shortly after beginning work on the painting an irritated voice tumbled across the yard in the wind. The neighbor to the left of the house had heard me nailing a small board into place over one of the windows, and had begun yelling at me to leave. He was a squat man with long brown hair spilling over his shoulders in a tangled mud slide. His arms were draped over a short chain-link fence, and his pot belly pressed through the squares below. It encircled his small mobile home, and was the only thing standing between me and his dirty-white pit bull. I stood in the large square window, six feet off the ground, and yelled back, “Hang on! I’ll be right there.”
​
I bounded out the front door, down the steps, through the dried weeds of the front yard, and over several ravines that had cut through it by long forgotten rain. When I got there I breathlessly explained that I didn’t mean any harm, and I wasn’t there to party or tear things apart; I was just working on a photography project and asked if he knew who owned the home.
“Well it’s private property.”
“Yes, but do you have any idea who owns it? Again, I’m not here to cause trouble.”
“I don’t know who owns it. Look, man, I totally understand the creative process; I’m an agent for a band. So I understand you want to do your thing and all, but I’m trying to relax over here.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to make noise. That must have been annoying.”
“Yes, it was.” He looked like an upset child.
“I’ll be done by tomorrow, and I’ll be quiet, I promise.”
After a few more rounds of this conversation he relented and agreed not to call the cops.
Other, more swarmy neighbors stationed in the floor above the entry way were also less than thrilled with my presence, and they made their displeasure known by promptly stinging me. I hadn’t even been paying attention when it happened the first time. I was standing still in the yard looking down at my cell phone, punching in numbers to calculate how many pictures I would be taking over the next several hours, when I felt a sharp poisoned ass penetrate my forearm. This fucker had gone completely out of its way to attack another animal that had shown no aggression whatsoever, dying in the process. It made no goddamn sense! I felt a pang of injustice, and muttered something about the Geneva Conventions, Nazi-bees and war crimes.
​
I didn’t think much of it until the swelling became so intense that it reached all the way down to my fingers. I sent a cell phone picture to my surgeon uncle, but he just told me to wait it out. Stings in the past had never produced such a dramatic effect, and I started becoming paranoid that I might have developed an allergy. It wound up taking days for my fat-man hands to go away.
​
Not all the neighbors were so surly. Directly in front of the house was Rick’s Roadside Café. Rick himself was there to greet me the first time I entered booming, “Hello! I’m Rick, and this is my Roadside Café. I recommend the Rick Burger!” Laughing, I shook his hand, and asked about the house. He told me it had been abandoned for 20 years, and that he had no idea who owned it. Occasionally high school students went there to get high, and the cops had to kick them out, but other than that he figured it was all mine. I thanked him for the help and ordered The Rick Burger, which turned out to be delicious black magic on a bun; the best burger I’ve ever tasted.
​
The painting I was working on was a massive optical illusion. It covered a third of the room, including the ceiling, and consisted of 154 squares, which had been painted on a three-dimensional surface, but appeared to the camera as flat. It was an abstraction of a NASA diagram which predicted the single greatest piece of evidence we have for the Big Bang: cosmic background radiation. I loved that the prediction diagram was so neat and symmetrical, and the diagram of the actual evidence was so chaotic and messy. It was a successful theory with measurable evidence in nature, but it made me think that even when humans are right, we’re still kind of wrong. I couldn’t deny that I was personally attracted to the more symmetrical image, which is why I chose to paint it. Like most people I tend to breathe a sigh of relief when things are easy to understand and interpret, even if unconsciously. It struck me as both amazingly wondrous, holy shit, the big bang is real!, and slightly comical look how perfect we thought it would be. It also spoke to the mystery of existence itself, and the hidden realities all around us.
    Despite my promises to the neighbor with the bulldog, it took four days to setup, and another three days to paint with the help of my “assistants,” Stephanie (my girlfriend) and Chad (a documentary filmmaker who had been following me).​
    ​
    I recorded the painting process with stop motion and time lapse photography, but I wanted to go a step further and make the shot move after the painting was completed. I envisioned the end result as a video clip where the camera would move out the right window, rotate around three quarters of the house, down through a scary-ass root cellar, and back up through broken floor boards. The final camera view would be looking at the original painting, but behind the room in which it was painted. From this vantage you could easily see the slanted and asymmetrical build of the room I had painted. I wanted it to look like a smoothly gliding camera shot made by unaffordable (to me) Hollywood equipment. To accomplish this I shot each frame one photograph at a time, and moved the tripod a short distance between each shot. Since I had to go out the window right next to the beehive, I planned to do the shot at night while those murderous little fuckers had murderous little bee fucker dreams. Fuckers.
    ​
    On the evening of my grand plan, my eighth and final day working on the painting, the neighbor with the pit bull began yelling at me again. This time when I went over to his fence he told me he knew the owners and that he was watching the house for them. Amused, I asked him to put me in contact with them. After grumbling some unintelligible response I told him it was my very last night there. I apologized for things taking longer than I had anticipated and promised I’d really be out of his hair this time if he gave me just one more night. He wouldn’t budge. He told me I couldn’t be there, and I needed to leave before he called the cops. The thought of having to cut the project short after so much work made me sick to my stomach. He said the problem wasn’t me so much as it was my presence, which indicated to random passersby that it was okay to just go in there all willy-nilly, take a nice big hit of PCP, and murder hookers. I was starting to panic and did the only thing I could think of: plead, beg, and ask over and over. Despite his repeated insistence that I leave, I wore him down. After a lengthy exchange he finally said, “Okay, but you can’t be here after tonight.” Feeling an immense amount of relief I turned and walked to the front yard to resume work, and was promptly stung without reason. Again.
    ​
    “FUCK YOU, BEES! I’M DOING THIS SHIT ANYWAY!” I roared.
    ​
    I immediately shot a guilty look at the neighbor’s house, but thankfully he had already retreated to the opulent interior of his doublewide. If I become short of breath I might be able to drive to the fire station several
    miles down the road, and if I die it will be doing something I love, I reasoned. It was the fourth sting. I knew my arm would soon swell to at least twice its original size, but I had no choice. I pondered the possibility of a heart attack. Why else would it swell so much? I was all alone with a very long night ahead, but I wasn’t inclined to throw in the towel. I headed back into the house, ducking under the swarming bees on the porch. I put the camera on the tripod and a fresh piece of ice from the cooler on my arm, and I went to work.
    ​
    I waited until 9 pm when the stars were out and bees were not before I started moving the tripod. At first it was easy; I was angling sideways towards the right window, moving across the flat cement floor of the room, but by the time I got there I knew I was in trouble. The bottom of the window was a full six feet off the ground. I had planned to go out the side of the window, and then circle around the front of the house. The camera was on a mini-tripod in the room, and would be transitioned to one I had borrowed from my documentarian, Chad, which was setup outside the window. Chad’s tripod was fully extended at every joint, but was still a couple feet shy of the necessary height. I scrambled to find items to place under each leg to make up for the difference. Luckily there were several dresser drawers scattered around on the first floor. They covered two of the three legs. I used several gallons of stacked paint cans to elevate the third. It was difficult getting the drawers to sit flat on the ground in the weeds and brush covering the yard, but eventually I prevailed, and began my transition out of the window. It was so high that I couldn’t reach the controls of the camera from the ground, so I stood on a step ladder and braced myself against the side of the building with my foot to look through the viewfinder. I had to get the camera to a manageable height, so with every movement around the front of the house I lowered the tripod by the width of two of my fingers. I knew it wasn’t very exact, but I figured if I did it the same way every time it might be consistent enough to pass.
    ​
    Once I got the tripod off the drawers and paint cans the movements became a lot easier, but I was breathing hard from straining to see through the viewfinder and adjusting the tripod so many times. The terrain was still very rough and uneven, and I had to adjust the tripod and camera with each shot. I couldn’t take a break, because it would make the movement of the shadows, cast by a glorious half-moon, inconsistent as I moved around the house. Making the transition out of the window had taken several hours and already I could feel the blood pumping through my body. The sting on my arm was swelling at a fantastic rate. It filled the inside sleeve of the light army jacket I was wearing, stretching the fabric tight around my bicep and forearm. I was turning into a walking sausage and had gone only a small fraction of the total distance.

    Seduction, Sexuality and Sin

    Red by a large margin is the color most commonly associated with seduction, sexuality, eroticism and immorality, possibly because of its close connection with passion and with danger.[96]
    Red was long seen as having a dark side, particularly in Christian theology. It was associated with sexual passion, anger, sin, and the devil,.[97] In the Old Testament of the Bible, the Book of Isaiah said: “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow.”[98] In the New Testament, in the Book of Revelations, the Antichrist appears as a red monster, ridden by a woman dressed in scarlet, known as the Whore of Babylon:
    “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: “And upon her forehead was a name written a mystery: Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and of all the abominations of the earth: And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.[99]
    Satan is often depicted as colored red and/or wearing a red costume in both iconography and popular culture.[100] By the 20th century, the devil in red had become a folk character in legends and stories. In 1915, Irving Berlin wrote a song, At the Devil’s Ball, and the devil in red appeared more often in cartoons and movies than in religious art.
    In 17th century New England, red was associated with adultery. In the 1850 novel by Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter, set in a Puritan New England community, a woman is punished for adultery with ostracism, her sin represented by a red letter ‘A’ sewn onto her clothes.[101]
    Red is still commonly associated with prostitution. Prostitutes in many cities were required to wear red to announce their profession, and houses of prostitution displayed a red light. Beginning in the early 20th century, houses of prostitution were allowed only in certain specified neighborhoods, which became known as red-light districts. Large red-light districts are found today in Bangkokand Amsterdam.
    In Roman Catholicism, red represents wrath, one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
    In both Christian and Hebrew tradition, red is also sometimes associated with murder or guilt. with “having blood on one’s hands,” or “being caught red-handed.”[102][103]

      • Red lipstick has been worn by women as a cosmetic since Ancient Times. It was worn byCleopatra, QueenElizabeth I, and films stars such as Elizabeth Taylorand Marilyn Monroe.

        Happiness, Celebration and Ceremony

        Red is the color most commonly associated with joy and well being.[88] It is the color of celebration and ceremony. A red carpet is often used to welcome distinguished guests. Red is also traditional color of seats in opera houses and theaters. Scarlet academic gowns are worn at by new Doctors of Philosophy at degree ceremonies at Oxford University and other schools. In China, it is considered the color of good fortune and prosperity, and it is the color traditionally worn by brides. In Christian countries, it is the color traditionally worn at Christmas by Santa Claus, because in the 4th century the historic Saint Nicholas was the Greek Christian Bishop of Myra, in modern-day Turkey, and bishops then dressed in red.[89]
        • President Barack Obamaand Prime MinisterManmohan Singh of India on a red carpet at theWhite House.

      Seduction

      From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

      Don Juan in Mozart’s opera Don Giovanni, a painting by Max Slevogt

      This article is about the process of enticing a person, to engage in sexual behaviour. 
      For other uses, see Seduction (disambiguation).
      In social science, seduction is the process of deliberately enticing a person, to lead astray, as from duty, rectitude, or the like; to corrupt, to persuade or induce to engage in sexual behaviour. The word seduction stems from Latin and means literally “to lead astray”. As a result, the term may have a positive or negative connotation. Famous seducers from history or legend include Lilith, Giacomo Casanova and the character Don Juan.[1]
      Seduction, seen negatively, involves temptation and enticement, often sexual in nature, to lead someone astray into a behavioral choice they would not have made if they were not in a state of sexual arousal. Seen positively, seduction is a synonym for the act of charming someone — male or female — by an appeal to the senses, often with the goal of reducing unfounded fears and leading to their “sexual emancipation”.[citation needed] Some sides in contemporary academic debate state that the morality of seduction depends on the long-term impacts on the individuals concerned, rather than the act itself, and may not necessarily carry the negative connotations expressed in dictionary definitions.[2]


      History

      Seduction is a popular motif in history and fiction, both as a warning of the social consequences of engaging in the behaviour or becoming its victim, and as a salute to a powerful skill. In the Bible,Eve offers the forbidden fruit to Adam. Eve is not explicitly depicted as a seductress[3] but some extra-Biblical commentary and art[4] promote this viewpoint. Eve herself was verbally seduced by the serpent, believed in Christianity to be Satan; the Sirens of Greek mythology lured sailors to their death by singing them to shipwreck; Cleopatra beguiled both Julius Caesar and Marc Antony,Dionysus was the Greek God of Seduction and wine, and Persian queen Scheherazade saved herself from execution by story-telling. Famous male seducers, their names synonymous with sexual allure, range from Genji to James Bond.
      In biblical times, because unmarried females who lost their virginity had also lost much of their value as marriage prospects, the Old Testament Book of Exodus specifies that the seducer must marry his victim or pay her father to compensate him for his loss of the marriage price: “And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife. If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.”

      Followed by Two Upbuilding Discourses, 1843
      Published in two volumes in 1843, Either/Or (original Danish title: Enten ‒ Eller) is an influential book written by the Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, exploring the aesthetic and ethical “phases” or “stages” of existence.
      Either/Or portrays two life views, one consciously hedonistic, the other based on ethical duty and responsibility. Each life view is written and represented by a fictional pseudonymous author, the prose of the work depending on the life view being discussed. For example, the aesthetic life view is written in short essay form, with poetic imagery and allusions, discussing aesthetic topics such as music, seduction, drama, and beauty. The ethical life view is written as two long letters, with a more argumentative and restrained prose, discussing moral responsibility, critical reflection, andmarriage.[1] The views of the book are not neatly summarized, but are expressed as lived experiences embodied by the pseudonymous authors. The book’s central concern is the primal question asked by Aristotle, “How should we live?”[2] His motto comes from Plutarch, “The deceived is wiser than one not deceived.”[3]
      The esthetic is the personal realm of existence. Personally you have the possibility of the highest as well as the lowest. The ethical is the civic realm of existence. You can be oblivious to everything going on around you or you can get involved. An individual can go too far in these realms and lose sight of him/her self. Only religion can rescue the individual from these two realms arguing with each other all day long. The spirit has to awaken in the single individual and this book, Either and Or, is written to the single individual. Kierkegaard’s challenge is for You to “discover a second face hidden behind the one you see”[4] in yourself first, then in others.
      The Middle Ages are altogether impregnated with the idea of representation, partly conscious, partly unconscious; the total is represented by the single individual, yet in such a way that it is only a single aspect which is determined as totality, and which now appears in a single individual, who is because of this, both more and less than an individual. By the side of this individual there stands another individual, who, likewise, totally represents another aspect of life’s content, such as the knight and the scholastic, the ecclesiastic and the layman. Either/Or Part I p. 86-87 Swenson

      American Beauty is a 1999 American drama film directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. Kevin Spacey stars as office worker Lester Burnham, who has a midlife crisis when he becomes infatuated with his teenage daughter’s best friend, Angela (Mena Suvari). Annette Bening co-stars as Lester’s materialistic wife, Carolyn, and Thora Birch plays their insecure daughter, Jane; Wes Bentley, Chris Cooper, and Allison Janneyalso feature. The film has been described by academics as a satire of American middle class notions of beauty and personal satisfaction; analysis has focused on the film’s explorations of romantic and paternal love, sexuality, beauty, materialism, self-liberation, and redemption.
      Ball began writing American Beauty as a play in the early 1990s, partly inspired by the media circus around the Amy Fisher trial in 1992. He shelved the play after realizing the story would not work on stage. After several years as a television screenwriter, Ball revived the idea in 1997 when attempting to break into the film industry. The modified script had a cynical outlook that was influenced by Ball’s frustrating tenures writing for several sitcoms. Producers Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen took American Beauty to DreamWorks; the fledgling film studio bought Ball’s script for $250,000, outbidding several other production bodies. DreamWorks financed the $15 million production and served as the North American distributor. American Beauty marked acclaimed theater director Mendes’ film debut; courted after his successful productions of the musicals Oliver! and Cabaret, Mendes was nevertheless only given the job after twenty others were considered and several “A-list” directors turned down the opportunity.
      Spacey was Mendes’ first choice for the role of Lester, even though DreamWorks had urged the director to consider better-known actors; similarly, the studio suggested several actors for the role of Carolyn until Mendes offered the part to Bening without DreamWorks’ knowledge. Principal photography took place between December 1998 and February 1999 on soundstages at the Warner Bros. backlot in Burbank, California and on location in Los Angeles. Mendes’ dominant style was deliberate and composed; he made extensive use of static shots and slow pans and zooms to generate tension. Cinematographer Conrad Hall complemented Mendes’ style with peaceful shot compositions to contrast with the turbulent on-screen events. During editing, Mendes made several changes that gave the film a less cynical tone.
      Released in North America on September 15, 1999, American Beauty was positively received by critics and audiences alike; it was the best-reviewed American film of the year and grossed over $350 million worldwide. Reviewers praised most aspects of the production, with particular emphasis on Mendes, Spacey and Ball; criticism tended to focus on the familiarity of the characters and setting. DreamWorks launched a major campaign to increase American Beauty‘s chances of Academy Award success; at the 72nd Academy Awards the following year, the film won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (for Spacey), Best Original Screenplay and Best Cinematography.

      Seduction, Sexuality and Sin

      Red by a large margin is the color most commonly associated with seduction, sexuality, eroticism and immorality, possibly because of its close connection with passion and with danger.[96]
      Red was long seen as having a dark side, particularly in Christian theology. It was associated with sexual passion, anger, sin, and the devil,.[97] In the Old Testament of the Bible, the Book of Isaiah said: “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow.”[98] In the New Testament, in the Book of Revelations, the Antichrist appears as a red monster, ridden by a woman dressed in scarlet, known as the Whore of Babylon:
      “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: “And upon her forehead was a name written a mystery: Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and of all the abominations of the earth: And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.[99]
      Satan is often depicted as colored red and/or wearing a red costume in both iconography and popular culture.[100] By the 20th century, the devil in red had become a folk character in legends and stories. In 1915, Irving Berlin wrote a song, At the Devil’s Ball, and the devil in red appeared more often in cartoons and movies than in religious art.
      In 17th century New England, red was associated with adultery. In the 1850 novel by Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter, set in a Puritan New England community, a woman is punished for adultery with ostracism, her sin represented by a red letter ‘A’ sewn onto her clothes.[101]
      Red is still commonly associated with prostitution. Prostitutes in many cities were required to wear red to announce their profession, and houses of prostitution displayed a red light. Beginning in the early 20th century, houses of prostitution were allowed only in certain specified neighborhoods, which became known as red-light districts. Large red-light districts are found today in Bangkokand Amsterdam.
      In Roman Catholicism, red represents wrath, one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
      In both Christian and Hebrew tradition, red is also sometimes associated with murder or guilt. with “having blood on one’s hands,” or “being caught red-handed.”[102][103]

      Ellsworth Kelly

      Ellsworth Kelly, evading critical attempts to classify him as a Color Field, hard-edge, or Minimalist painter, has redefined abstraction in art, establishing himself through his drawings, paintings, sculptures, and prints as one of the most important artists working today. Kelly’s visual vocabulary is drawn from observation of the world around him—shapes and colors found in plants, architecture, shadows on a wall or a lake—and has been shaped by his interest in the spaces between places and objects and between his work and its viewers. He has said, “In my work, I don’t want you to look at the surface; I want you to look at the form, the relationships.”

      Kelly (born 1923) has been the subject of major exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, and his work is in many public collections, including those of the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, and Tate Modern, London. Kelly lives and works in Spencertown, New York.

      1. κρεοπωλείο

      Ορισμός: 7
      Λήμμα: 8

      1. Ως εμφάνιση: Ο πολύ χοντρός άνθρωπος. Δηλαδή αυτός που έχει κρέατα όχι μόνο για τον εαυτό του, αλλά και για να πουλήσει το απόθεμα σε άλλους. Το -πωλείο εδώ μπορεί να συσχετισθεί και με το -εμπορας, λ.χ. στα κακαδέμπορας, κουραδέμπορας, όπου κάποιος εμφανίζεται να προτείνει προς πώληση αηδιαστικά μέρη του κορμιού του (και μεταφορικώς βεβαίως) ή με το αγγλικό -monger. Στο κρεοπωλείο βέβαια η έμφαση είναι περισσότερο στην περίσσεια των κρεάτων που επαρκούν και για εξαγωγή. Κυρίως λέγεται ως κινητό κρεοπωλείο.

      2. Στο μπουρδελοϊδίωμα είναι περίπου συνώνυμο του μπριζολάδικο, δηλαδή σημαίνειευαγές ίδρυμα όπου προσφέρεται πλήρες σεχ. Βέβαια πρόκειται περισσότερο για ασθενή μεταφορά παρά για παγιωμένο τεχνικό όρο, όπως το μπριζολάδικο. Μια μεταφορά, η οποία έχει κάπως ηθικολογική χροιά και καυτηριάζει το γεγονός ότι πωλείται πλήρες σεξ, ως μή όφειλε. Λ.χ. θα χαρακτηριστεί λιγότερο ως κρεοπωλείο ένα μπουρδέλο, ενώ περισσότερο ένα στριπτιτζάδικο ή μασατζίδικο ή άλλα μέρη που δεν προσφέρουν επίσημα παρόμοιες υπηρεσίες. Η μεταφορά κρεοπωλείο θίγει εν προκειμένω α) το ότι δεν υποτίθεται ότι προσφέρεται η πλήρης αυτή υπηρεσία στο εν λόγω γαμαζί, β) ότι αυτό παρ΄ όλαφ τα γίνεται με την ενθάρρυνση της διεύθυνσης του γαμαζιού και όχι από πρωτοβουλία μιας επιμέρους κορασίδας. Εφόσον βέβαια πρόκειται για απλές μεταφορές, η χρήση ποικίλλει.

      Εξάλλου, ο όρος κρεοπωλείο χρησιμοποιείται ευρύτερα ως ηθικολογική μεταφορά για να καυτηριαστεί η επίδειξη ή σεξουαλική εργαλειοποίηση ανθρώπινης σάρκας, λ.χ. και σε παραλίες, πλατείες, νυφοπάζαρα και όπου.

      – Τον φίλο σου, το κινητό κρεοπωλείο τι τον έφερες; Αφού έχει τον γκομενοδιώκτη.

      – Παλιά κάναμε και τον χαβαλέ μας στο γαμαζί, πίναμε το ποτάκι μας, λέγαμε καμιά μαλακιούλα. Τώρα που έχει γίνει κρεοπωλείο και μαζεύεται όλη η καυλοπιτσιρικαρία στην ουρά για να κουρτινιάσει, τι να ευχαριστηθείς;
      (Παράπονο πουρέιτζερ για την εκτράχυνση των γαμαζιών).
