TOM WESSELMANN/ LA PROMESSE DU BONHEUR

This catalogue is an important opportunity to analyze specific aspects of his work: Victorian and post-Victorian sexuality, female a gency, postwar economic abundance, beauty, the erotics of anticipation, the politics of the gaze, and strategies of indeterminacy. E very aspect of the books design, including its more than 170 color illustrations, is conceived to reflect on the artists haptic, i ndexical painterly approach and oversize scale system.
