41 reviews

Tom Wesselmann, American, 1931 to 2004, screen print on paper, Nude, depicting a portrait of a nude woman. Signed in pencil, and numbered 85 of 100, lower left. Additionally stamped, T. W. Fine Art Edition, and numbered 85 of 100, on the backside. Tom Wesselmann is regarded as one of the founding members of American Pop Art. Alongside his contemporaries Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and James Rosenquist, Wessellmann produced artworks using imagery seen in everyday popular culture. He is famous for his Great American Nude series beginning in the 1960s, which played on the corruption of Eros by a consumer society. This series feature female figures in highly suggestive forms and painted in very patriotic primary colors in red, white, yellow and blue. In the 1970s, Wesselmanns work became increasingly sculptural and started working with constructions and assemblages, but in his final years, Wesselmann returned to the female form in the Sunset Nudes series pictured with very simple lines and forms. American Pop Art Graphic Art Prints, Wall Art, and Collectibles.
