Description
The painting The Stud is also called The Bomb Painting. A bomb detonated in the building where this painting hung. The explosion was meant as a distraction for a nearby bank robbery that took place shortly after. The only object that was damaged was the centerpart of the painting. It was later restored by the painter.
The Stud is a fusionist painting. Fusionism is a style of painting combining realism and non-figurative/abstract elements. This is a style the artist has developed since the 70's. Fusionism was considered messy by audience and art dealers until around the 90's, when the fusionist expression became more recognised and wide spread
