The WPI is pleased to announce the launch of the Tom Wesselmann Catalogue Raisonné. Working in close collaboration with the Estate of the artist, the WPI will author a dynamic online publication that will link to digitized material from the artist’s archives.

In addition to the wealth of archival documentation at the Wesselmann studio, the WPI’s researchers will also draw from the relevant archival materials compiled throughout the duration of the Jasper Johns Catalogue Raisonné project over the course of the last decade.

The WPI will begin accepting submissions for possible inclusion to the Tom Wesselmann Catalogue Raisonné in March 2020. As our team of researchers will initially focus their efforts on examining works from The Great American Nude series, we will prioritize these works with a limited-time fee-waiver for submission. More information will be available about this process in the coming months.
