Jack Pierson's show 'Tomorrow's Man' at Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac in Paris is a group exhibition focusing on the work of four young artists championed by Pierson

对于一个艺术家来说，他的作品可以是轻率的，明确的，充满了哀伤，杰克皮尔森似乎不需要你的注意。在他与“墙纸”的最新项目中，他徘徊在摄像机后面，拍摄芬兰的汤姆的故居和工作室，这位同性恋艺术家激发了当代流行艺术家的灵感，其中包括皮尔逊(Pierson)。对黑色皮革和闪亮的胸肌的敬意-与阳光明媚的洛杉矶回声公园(Echo Park，LA，背景)不协调-是我们2014年11月发行的主题。

毫无疑问，皮尔逊在巴黎的加莱丽·塔德修斯·罗帕奇(GalerieThaddausRopac)举办了一场时装秀。然而，他并没有抓住公众的焦点，而是决定举办一次集体展览，重点是一系列艺术家-年轻、年老、甚至死亡-而不是他自己。

“明日的男人”于11月19日在Marais画廊举行，几个月前，加拿大出版商Bywater Bros的罗杰·拜沃特(Roger Bywater)要求将皮尔森的作品编成一本小专著。艺术家认为一本更好的书是通过邀请其他鲜为人知的艺术家和他自己一起贡献作品，把所有作品拼凑在一起的一种经验剪贴簿。

除了对男性形象的喜爱之外，皮尔森并没有想到真正的主题，他收集了肖像画、旧广告、星历和新的艺术作品，为“明日的人”这本书取名于一本以美国世纪中叶流行的健身杂志命名的书。皮尔逊计划继续出版一系列的书。

这次展览是自然的“第二章”，让参观者可以更深入地了解皮尔逊的作品“童子军”(Protégés)的艺术。他请书中的四位艺术家带了几十件作品来展出。其中有两个人从未参加过画廊展览：理查德·丁克勒(Richard Tinkler)，他把强烈的几何图案向外辐射到画框的边缘；埃文·鲸鱼(Evan Whale)用FujiFlex纸制作沉浸式摄影装置。皮尔逊说，他们看起来一点都不像，但在我看来，他们看起来很棒。它们能起作用是因为我感觉到它们。

亚历克斯·约万诺维奇(AlexJovanovich)用黑色、神秘的图像绘制了钢笔和墨水。这位艺术家和室内装潢师弗洛伦斯·福林正在展示一组旧床单，上面印有各种色彩，代表着层层的花招。

在最后一刻，皮尔森添加了已故的鲁道夫施瓦兹科勒的艺术作品，在他的时代，谁用他的身体作为画布描绘男性的形式在不舒服的过渡。皮尔森说：“死去的艺术家应该像年轻的艺术家一样受到关注。”

The exhibition follows Pierson's monograph of the same name - requested by Roger Bywater of the Canadian publisher Bywater Bros - which featured portraiture, old advertisements, ephemera and new works of art collected by Pierson

Held at the Marais gallery until 19 November, the exhibition is a natural 'second chapter', allowing visitors to look deeper into the art of Pierson's protégés

The name 'Tomorrow's Man' was inspired by the bodybuilding magazine of the same name that was popular in mid-century America

The work of the late Rudolf Schwarzkogler, an artist who, in his time, used his body as a canvas to portray the male form in uncomfortable transition, was a last minute addition to the show. Pictured is Schwarzkogler's '3. Aktion', 1965. Photography: Ludwig Hoffenreich

Included in the exhibition is Richard Tinkler, who colours intense geometric patterns that radiate outward toward the edges of the frame. This is his '#6', 2014

Artist and interior decorator Florence Derive is presenting a collection of old bedsheets, dyed with splashes of colour that represent layers of artifice. This is her 'Coat of a Knight', 2014

Young artist Evan Whale creates immersive photographic installations from FujiFlex paper, such as this unique chromogenic print titled 'The Purple Shall Govern (Mobile 3)', 2014 

For his latest project with Wallpaper* (W* 188), Pierson lingered behind the camera to shoot the former home and studio of Tom of Finland, the homoerotic artist who inspired a generation of contemporary pop artists - Pierson included. Photography: Jack Pierson

This 1910 house in LA's Echo Park was purchased by the artist's friend Durk Dehner and others in 1979, and became home to Touko Laaksonen (aka Tom of Finland) from 1980 until his passing in 1991. In the house's rear garden (left), the 'sugar shack' was erected by foundation member Carr Galen as a quiet 'sanctuary'. In another shot of the garden's seating areas (right), hangs a banner by Taurus Webster, commemorating an iconic drawing by Tom of Finland from a series completed in 1963. Photography: Jack Pierson

Clockwise from the bottom left: Dehner's bed complete with black leather pillowcases and military blanket; a painted and collaged portrait of Tom of Finland by German artist Rinaldo Hopf, 1991; a detail from Tom's 'Northmen', 1989; lemons from the garden atop a collaged front porch table.
