A New York performance artist is bringing new meaning to the term "audience participation." The artist &£45;- who calls herself Heilman C. &£45;- is inviting art lovers to participate in a live sex show in a New York art gallery next month.

The live sex show will be held February 21 at the Jack Tilton Gallery where the new exhibit &£45;- called "Self Portrait: Porno" &£45;- will open. To get the opening off with a bang, four porn actors will perform sex acts at the gallery. All guests attending the art event are invited to direct or participate &£45;- as long as they use a condom.

Heilman C. plans to videotape various reactions of the guests and use them in her next art project.
