		Tom Wesselmann (born 1931) is known as a pop artist.
		Wesselmann created a series of still lifes (works of art that represent a group of inanimate objects) in the 1960s – the Gallery's work is #20 in the series.
		Wesselmann often included reproductions of works by other artists in his still lifes, in part to show that art – once so far removed from everyday life – had joined the commercial world.

		Wesselmann was drafted into the forces in the early 1950s and, in defence against "the horror of army life" as he put it, began to draw cartoons.
		Wesselmann's early work was quite crude and small enough for him to create on a drawing board perched on his lap.
		Wesselmann, however, maintained that in his own work all the subsumed elements became part of paintings that were uniquely "charged with their very presence".

	ART OF THE 70'S: Wesselmann
		Tom Wesselmann planned to become a cartoonist until his final year at the Cooper Union in New York, where he studied from 1956 to 1959 and was encouraged to become a painter.
		Wesselmann deserves credit for being one of the few artists of that era to tackle traditional art history themes -- the nude and the still life.
		Wesselmann did a fair number of these small paintings, which served as studies for the major pictures but were also finished works in their own right.

		Tom Wesselmann, a prominent Pop artist best known for modernizing the classic female nude into a flat, enigmatic, billboard-friendly silhouette, died Friday at New York University Medical Center.
		Wesselmann's sleek, hard-edge, mostly pink silhouettes of reclining female torsos or big cutout lips exhaling clouds of cigarette smoke were distinguished from his fellow Pop artists by a sensuous heat and close-up intimacy that were one part sex and four parts astutely considered color and scale.
		Wesselmann that "he felt a sensation of high visceral excitement in his stomach, and it seemed as though his eyes and stomach were directly connected."

		Tom Wesselmann was one of few Pop artists to use the human figure.
		Wesselmann established his style before the women's liberation movement and the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
		He was irritated by critics who spoke of his nudes as "girly [sic] magazine material." Wesselmann considered them critiques of American Puritanism and Pop parodies of the esteemed artistic tradition of the female nude, seen from the vantage point of the Playboy bunny era.

		Tom Wesselmann was born in 1931 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
		Attempting to find a new direction Wesselmann anticipated a figurative subject, which led him back to the classical subjects of art—portraits, the nude, still life, interiors, and landscape.
		Initially, Wesselmann felt he was destined to be a miniaturist, but soon discovered that his imagery could successfully be transformed into monumental scale.

		Wesselmann's roughly 2-by-3-foot graphite drawing of an uninhabited, full-frontal Volkswagen in a bosky landscape, Drawing for Landscape #2 (1964), recalls the confident hand of Rivers.
		Recent work at Robert Miller surveyed the vibrant, mature Wesselmann in his ongoing journey into abstraction, with a selection of abstract reliefs in oil on laser-cut aluminum and a like number of carefree, increasingly abstracted nudes in oil on canvas.
		From 5 to 8 feet on a side, the canvases of Wesselmann's "Sunset Nude" series are variations of the "Great American Nude," with a full quorum of nipples as sufficient anatomy to identify them as such, and at least a fragment of the setting sun in each.

		While women and gay men are allowed to turn the tables and picture male or female nude in ways that challenge the traditional male painter's gaze, and painters like Lucien Freud are allowed to undermine traditional ideals of beauty, the voluptuous female nude as depicted by a straight male artist remains somewhat suspect.
		This state of affairs clearly fails to unsettle Tom Wesselmann, who has been exploring the subject since the early 1960s.
		Wesselmann's early nudes have become icons of the Pop era, in part because the bright red lipstick, big straw hats and harlequin sunglasses embedded them in a particular moment.
