To Whom It May Concern. Louise Bourgeois and Gary Indiana

Originally published in a large-format limited edition of seven copies, To Whom It May Concernpairs Louise Bourgeois´ luminous male and female torsos with Gary Indiana´s prose poems, in a meditation on physicality, sexuality and relationships. Violette´s publication reproduces this artist´s book--one of the last projects Bourgeois completed before her death in 2010--in a reduced, collectable format. Bourgeois´ headless bodies, printed en face in erotic stand-off, represent male and female at their essential: swollen bellies, heavy breasts and engorged phalluses, all rendered in rich pinks, purples, reds and blues. Indiana´s short, visceral but lyrical texts are interspersed throughout in an electric blue typewriter font, conversing with these images through an unconventional non-narrative on the limits of flesh, desire and intimacy. Simple and elegant in design, and exquisitely printed, To Whom It May Concernthrobs with stripped-down eroticism and the sensualities of image and language juxtaposed.
