His early work from the 1950s included collage, and then moved to abstract and figurative painting. For lovers of collage, \u201cTom Wesselmann: Beyond Pop Art\u201d includes abstract collages of found paper, many of which have not been exhibited before, as well as monumental sculptures composed of objects, grouped together to form a portrait. This is an historic opportunity to see Wesselmann\u2019s complete body of work and the only opportunity to see it in Canada. In spring 2013, the show moves to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Montreal, Quebec, Canada<\/strong><br \/>\n19 May-7 October 2012<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mbam.qc.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.mbam.qc.ca<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>19 May-7 October 2012<\/p>\n<p>For lovers of collage, \u201cBeyond Pop Art: Tom Wesselman\u201d includes abstract collages of found paper, many of which have not been exhibited before, as well as monumental sculptures composed of objects, grouped together to form a portrait. <\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/articles\/beyond-pop-art-tom-wesselman-at-the-musee-des-beaux-arts-de-montreal\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":701,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-699","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles","category-collage-exhibitions"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/WES.046_300DPI-web.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2QTD7-bh","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1538,"url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/articles\/sinister-pop-at-the-whitney-museum-of-art\/","url_meta":{"origin":699,"position":0},"title":"Sinister Pop at the Whitney Museum of Art","author":"Christopher Byrne","date":"17 March 2013","format":"gallery","excerpt":"\"Sinister Pop\" (15 November 2012-31 March 2013) is the sixth in a series of exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.
