WPI Publications

The WPI is pleased to announce a working partnership with the Estate of Tom Wesselmann to publish the Tom Wesselmann Digital Catalogue Raisonné. Prior to publication of the first installment, the WPI will continually update the status of research through an online initiative called the Tom Wesselmann Digital Corpus. 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.

The WPI began accepting submissions for possible inclusion to the Tom Wesselmann Digital Corpus on June 24, 2020. As our team of researchers will initially focus their efforts on examining works from The Great American Nudes series, we will prioritize these works with a limited-time fee-waiver for submission.

Following the publication of the digital catalogue raisonné of The Paintings of Paul Gauguin, 1891–1903, WPI is now preparing the catalogue raisonné of the paintings from Gauguin’s Breton period, 1889–1891. Commentaries and analysis authored by Sylvie Crussard will complement the cataloguing data. In support of this work, the WPI researchers have conducted extensive research and examined archival material and documents gathered by Georges Wildenstein, Daniel Wildenstein and the Wildenstein Institute since the 1920s. These digital volumes will be freely accessible on the WPI website.
