Almost no art that is motivated by sex is great; on the contrary, it is base, grotesque and has a corrupting influence on its audience. Beauty is something to be beheld, not possessed; it is a transcendental emotion. Sex involves possession and acting upon base instincts, which serve to defile any preexisting beauty. Great art has been motivated by love and adoration but these things don't have to engender sex or sexual desires.
