Additional Details: Original first edition exhibition poster for Gerard Garouste’s show at Leo Castelli and Sperone Westwater Galleries, New York, held February 5–26, 1983. Printed in Italy, with photography by André Morain. The image reflects Garouste’s theatrical, narrative-driven style: a man stands beside a bed while another lies nude across it, his clothing scattered carelessly on the floor. The scene, rich in domestic detail, evokes the intimate aftermath of a private encounter, blending realism with psychological tension. Garouste, known for weaving allegory, mythology, and personal narrative into his work, here channels those concerns into a charged, contemporary interior. A rare first edition poster, it not only documents Garouste’s early 1980s exhibition history but also captures the bold cultural spirit of the time, when themes of identity, desire, and private narrative were being explored with new candor in the art world.
