Terry Rodgers - The Apotheosis of Pleasure

In the past few years, TERRY RODGERS has emerged as one of America’s most talented figurative painters.

Thanks to a brilliant technique combining effortless brushstrokes and elaborate compositions, his paintings compel the viewer to participate in a disenchanted world where beauty, sex and money do not seem to bring happiness.

The Apotheosis of Pleasure, published by TORCH Books of Amsterdam, is the first comprehensive full-color catalogue to feature the work of this artist who will surely be recognized as on of the most important painters of the early 21st century.

Published by TORCH Books, Amsterdam (early December, 2006). The renowned Dutch design studio SMEL is responsible for the art direction and design of the book as well as the limited edition boxes.

The exhibition The Apotheosis of Pleasure is scheduled from 2 December 2006 until 13 January 2007 at TORCH Gallery.

Address: Lauriergracht 94, 1016 RN Amsterdam,
phone: 0031(0)20-6260284.

Geneviéve Gauckler

A wonderful little comic book by Geneviéve Gauckler based around a man and woman who fall in love and start a family, and how the generation tree develops over time.

Fully illustrated by Geneviéve featuring her wonderful trademark simple and striking style. In French only, however a great collectable. We hope to see more comics from her soon.
