ISBN 9789069170015. Text in English and Spanish. The work of this Belgian artist is closer to Warhol than Broodthaers, despite being largely a discussion of art and of its mechanisms. Nonetheless he renews the tradition of American Pop Art. The union in Delvoye's work between the plebeian and the aristocratic, the decorative and the functional, reproduces the story of the degradation of what we call kitsch. One of the conceits in Delvoye's work is that Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde may be not only simultaneous, but interchangable. Works featured here include Mosaic, Susan, out for a pizza and his infamous tattoed pigs. In good condition.
