{"product_id":"9780977868681","title":"Kurt Kauper: Paintings 2001-2007","description":"\u003cp\u003eAccording to The New York Times, \"It would be easy to read Kurt Kauper's nude portraits of the former hockey players Bobby Orr and Derek Sanderson as a rote comment on the fragile state of American (or Canadian) masculinity. They work better as an erotic and personal tribute, one that draws on the artist's childhood in a Bruins-worshiping Boston suburb; the neo-Classical figuration of Jacques-Louis David; and the overt sensuality of pre-Stonewall 'athletic' films.\" This slim, beautifully produced, bright yellow linen-bound exhibition catalogue with tipped-on cover image features some of the most strangely arresting male nudes on canvas today. Ranging from life-sized, full-frontal portraits of a nude Cary Grant at home in his suave, mid-century-movie-star manse (2001-2003) to the artist's most recent portraits of god-like, real-life Canadian hockey stars of the 1960s and 70s, this volume presents work that is perverse, liberated and rightly hilarious alongside essays by Wayne Koestenbaum and Pepe Karmel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeffrey Deitch Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45497364414543,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/9174\/2287\/files\/9780977868681-1.jpg?v=1784952503","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/ja\/products\/9780977868681","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
