CONT

Surnommé le "pornopoète", le Britannique Allen Jones s'inspire de la pornographie à trois sous, comme Warhol s'inspirait de la pub ou Lichtenstein de la bande dessinée. En cela, il est fidèle à l'esprit pop, qui puise son imagerie directement de la société de consommation. Sa table représente une femme à moitié nue, à quatre pattes.
