Sweet Sweat is a comprehensive new edition of Belgian artist Justine Frank’s last novel that sports a blend of feminism, pornography, Judaism and art. Sweet Sweat is the creation of artist Roee Rosen – as is Frank herself. In addition to the novel, the book contains accompanying biographical and critical essays - written by Rosen and illustrated with reproductions of Frank’s artwork. We wanted to create a book with a timeless character to fit the historical nature of the material. Frank’s drawings were also used as initial capitals at the beginning of each chapter.
Sweet Sweat was selected as one of Art Forum’s ‘Best of 2009’ books.
