Made in Japan, La Grande Odalisque 1964

"Made in Japan, La Grande Odalisque" is a 1964 work by French artist Martial Raysse. The painting is a vibrant and colorful reinterpretation of Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres's famous "La Grande Odalisque" (1814). Raysse's work is a playful and irreverent appropriation of the original, updating the composition with bold colors and a distinctly modern aesthetic. The original work's female figure is rendered in an eye-catching green and adorned with a brightly patterned head scarf. Raysse's "Made in Japan, La Grande Odalisque" is a prime example of his Pop Art and appropriation-based approach, showcasing a unique blend of the classical and contemporary.
