Description
Tom Wesselmann: La Promesse du Bonheur is a critical catalogue that explores key aspects of American pop artist Tom Wesselmann's work. Published to coincide with an exhibition at the Villa Paloma in Monaco, this book offers a nuanced analysis of Victorian and post-Victorian sexuality, female agency, and the politics of the gaze. The publication features over 170 color illustrations and is designed to reflect Wesselmann's haptic, indexical painterly approach. The book's design itself becomes an integral part of the exhibition, inviting readers to engage with the artist's unique style and techniques. This catalogue provides a valuable opportunity for art enthusiasts and scholars to examine specific aspects of Wesselmann's oeuvre in depth.
