An Ottawa art gallery struggling to pay the bills is offering its space to adult film producers looking for an "artsy" backdrop.
Negotiations are under way to use an unusually named art gallery in Ottawa as an off-hours film set for pornographic films, its owner says.
"It's exciting for me to share my space," said gallery owner Guy Bérubé, as he pointed out the various features of the gallery — which is already named after the French euphemism for "orgasm."
In English, the gallery's name means "The Little Death," a French term for an orgasm.
Bérubé has rented out his gallery for private events in the past, but said he can charge double for adult films.
"I'm a starving gallerist," he said. "It takes some of the pressure away of having to sell constantly to pay our bills." Other Ottawa gallery owners have mixed feelings about Bérubé's idea.
