...images of lowlife, but in Parfum Gréve Générale, bonne odeur (1960), pretty girls posing in underwear rub elbows with bloody corpses. Jacques de la Villeglé's Boulevard de la Bastille (1969) uses torn posters from the previous year's near-revolution overlaid with depictions of General de Gaulle...

The pieces resemble the fragments of a mosaic, and the slices are separated by white lines as in a stained glass composition. The work shows the same kind of motion—a swirling sea of energy?...
