Book excerpt: Top-shelf magazine meets fine art; high-heeled, fetishistic women parade through a world of Matissean colour. Allen Jones is one of the most controversial figures in the art world. Tackling the issues of gender and power raised by his work, and including images of Jones's source material and his own photography, this is the first publication to survey his career. As well as investigating his fine-art work, this publication looks at other aspects of his career - his work for the theatre, ballet and film - and reveals an artist who, having been influenced by the world of fashion, has seen his work appropriated by the fashion world -- Dustjacket.
