Marc Dennis’ Painting is the Cover of a New Book

NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwired – October 20, 2015) – A painting by acclaimed New York Artist Marc Dennis has been chosen as the cover of Jennifer Tyburczy’s new book, “Sex Museums – The Politics and Performance of Display”. The book, which was written as an exploration of western sexuality, will be published by The University of Chicago Press. Dennis seems the expected choice for such a subject matter as his work rarely stems far from the provocative, intense, and revealing nature of human beings.

In the painting “The End of the World”, the back of a female observer directly obstructs the genitalia of a female nude. The famous painting is by Gustave Courbet, a 19thcentury French artist. She is, in a sense, finding some comparison to herself in the work of art. As she looks on at the painting, we are forced to look at her, as the piece becomes a meta-social commentary to our views on art. Throughout his career, Marc Dennis has aimed to use varying devices to raise questions for his audience, and muddle the search for meaning and purpose of art – thus creating a broader experience for the person who views it.
