Penile Papers is a collection of penis drawings from a kaleidoscopic crew of contributors, from TV presenters, professional artists, musicians and designers to those in more prosaic professions, an IT consultant, a retail assistant, a pub landlady and a friend’s grandmother. Each contributor was asked simply to contribute a hand-drawn image of a penis.
The edition of 200 features 62 different penises from individuals such as Vivienne Westwood, Beth Ditto, Mica Levi, Caroline Flack, Nick Night, Andreas Kronthaler, Andrew Thomas Huang, Giles Deacon and many more. All profits from Penile Papers were spilt equally between the Terrence Higgins Trust and the Runnymede Trust.
The book was printed so as to meet the dimensions of an average penis when rolled up.
