, The Girl in Black Stockings, the originals, and Four in a Room, and a number of the '60s graphic compositions that followed. Though a member of a group called Puma, whose members were mostly young women, the artist was listed in the name of a man, as was a photograph of him and his girlfriend. The lack of identifications is a metaphor for the artists position, which was that he was drawn to the male gaze, to the male ciphers.His desire for an alternative sensibility also led him to draw upon the Munchian code of the avant-garde and its discourses of abjection, self-pity, and bemusement. A number of his drawings and paintings—one was titled An Eye for an Eye, The Day of the Long Fang, 1989; and also translated into T. J. hooks way of speaking, The Return of the Repressed, 1992, an endless gesture of the gaze. Gazing at a painting of a face—one can imagine the line of questioning they take when confronted with a man in suits—is in itself a powerful act of humiliation, for it reminds the spectator of the extreme self-consciousness of our desire for conformity, our need to avoid anyone we think of as too different. (While wearing those suits, I suddenly felt a little naked, which, I suppose, was a consequence of wearing the glasses.) A certain complicity with the patriarchal structures of the body is also apparent in Tear Drop, 1994, a gouache drawing on canvas of the head of a woman who looks exactly like a father figure. The man, who is a woman, is presented as a co-male. (Since he is also a father figure, he appears to be wrestling with his own masculinity.) The woman is a female, and both is a beauty, but one who does not, in fact, feel feminine.

Fan art of Zelda and link in modern clothing with a pastel art style. Against this framework, we can see Hyman Bloom, a young, lo-fi wizard of another time and place, and whom Tomaselli has worked with previously; for instance, in a portrait of Flark, 1989. Both the portrait of Bloom and the post-Modern settee in the room with the hair-of-the-dog belong in Hyman Bloom: The Underground Man, 1980. As the figure in the painting reaches the back of the room, he enters a black room, surrounded by a blacked-out light, with an ottoman and a basin in which he sits, and a chair with a note pad under the handle of a tiller, the same one in which we see our last, young protagonist, David Crane, now the head of Tomasellis studio, gazing out at the ocean of air. The walls are dimly painted, and the chairs, which are white, are all covered with white paint. The floor is white, with a few chairs in the recesses, and the tiller is a place holder, its head so tilted its neck at an angle that it is in a thin illusion, its handle straight and its tip pointed backward. Crane has set up a work environment for Tomaselli to play with, with nothing else but black-framed pictures. He has let the world that he creates serve him, to be consumed as a work of art by the beholder. One can only imagine that this play of fragments with fragments, caught in some reflection of a single image, would be as affecting as it was to a spectator as I could have been, but perhaps even more incisive. There is another mysterious man in the room, a man in the company of a woman whom Tomaselli recently took to be another artist, said to be an acquaintance of Tomasellis.

of low seriousness (what with Christian Idol)? The answer to the above question is obvious: NO, not really. This show really just casually belatedly pointed out that perhaps a little of everything is safe and indeed wholesome, whether it be shiny paint on a cagelike sofa, TV set, or a woman. Moreover, the fact that we still live with the morality of a postindustrial culture that is insulated from social realpolitik by a carefree license with symbols of pleasure, the nature of which escapes both our conscious control and that of our admirers, is less likely to affect our perception of ourselves and of the world at large. And indeed, the presence of such products (so-called esthetic objects) in otherwise empty spaces, on the other hand, might suggest that we are a lot closer to what theyre meant to be than we might like to think.

, and still more with contemporary accessories, only adds up to a form of desire that is always associated with a more gentle, if somewhat banal, eroticism. On the one hand, the elaborate materialism of the figure, in its attempt to provide the perfect ostensible model, makes this almost all-pervasive self-presentation rather banal. On the other hand, with all the plethora of subjective accessories, it is a pleasure to know that the art object is as always a subject and not a fetishistic fetish.

(as in formica, 1995) is not included.The relevance of this exhibition to the current fashion trends for graphic design and fashion is evident. This awareness is inherent in the evocation of figures which are increasingly the most important aspects of their forms, and hence of their communication. The examples of Dada and Surrealism presented here consist mainly of figures on the verge of obsolescence. Nevertheless, we are confronted with the phantasmatic face of the artist. Indeed, the exhibition forms a commentary on the current fashion for fashion, and of artistic aesthetics as well. Stalins move from one entirely dehumanizing regime to another—to a global architecture of signs and logos—creates an entirely new domain, one whose autonomy is underlined by the necessity of documenting it. The range of the work here is diverse: from abstraction to the figure, and back to abstraction. We see a very difficult task, with which we are not indifferent. It is a disquieting one.The exhibition is organized according to categories such as abstract painting, figuration, and assemblage. A number of the works are from 1990, and are based on the polyptychs, which are usually formed of two to six elements. The number of elements is based on the number of different media (themes, colors, form, materials). The painting category, with a few exceptions, consists of color photographs or still lifes, and for the assemblage category, we find a handpainted rubber stamp that combines various materials and also objects—as in an overturned windshield wiper, a wooden pylon with fruit, or a flattened crumpled coffee cup.
