RAYMOND PETTIBON
The Pages Which Contain Truth Are Blank
By Raymond Pettibon
Edited by Andreas Hapkemeyer and Luca Beatrice
136 drawings and paintings by this pitiless critic of contemporary culture.
Through the aesthetic traditions of comic and popular art, Pettibon
examines the collapse of the Sixties and the despair generated by the
impotence of that generation to ignite the incipient revolution.
Andreas Hapkemeyer is Director of the Museum of Modern and
Contemporary art in Bolzano, Italy, and Luca Beatrice is Professor of
Art History at the Brera Academy in Torino, Italy.
ISBN
“...it is the fragmentary and disassociated nature of Pettibon’s ‘quotations’
which make them so effective. They function as sudden epiphanies of voice,
which rupture the apparent homogeneity of the anomic and aphasic totality of
contemporary culture.”—Benjamin Buchloh in Raymond Pettibon: A

THE MOST SPECIAL DAY OF MY LIFE
By Rob and Christian Clayton
ISBN
The Clayton Brothers’ idiosyncratic paintings and constructions have won
them acclaim as unique visual storytellers.Their art collaborations have
been seen in the film Monkeybone, music videos for Oasis, and print
campaigns for the X Games. The Most Special Day of My Life showcases
some of their best projects, including Tim House, a 6’ x 8’ x 13’
church/schoolhouse installment, with bizarre portraits of people real and
imagined clinging together inside. Designed to be sampled rather than
read front to back, this sumptuously illustrated book tours the work, and
minds, of two masters of postmodern art.

THE SADDEST PLACE ON EARTH
The Art of Camille Rose Garcia
By Camille Rose Garcia
These newest works examine ideas of decadence, deception, and denial
explored within the context of Empire, a looking glass into the everyday
violence that supports the current power structure. The Saddest Place on
Earth captures the moment the glossy veneer of privilege falls away to
reveal another reality, an opulent scenario of surreal destruction.
ISBN
Camille Rose Garcia draws inspiration for her creepy dystopias from
her upbringing in the suburbs of Orange County, where disenchantment
with society catapulted her into a world of subversive art and music.
Garcia’s work has appeared in Juxtapoz, Paper, Flaunt, and Blab and is
shown in galleries throughout the US.

THE WONDER
Portraits of a Remembered City, Volume 1
Portraits of a Remembered City, Volume 2
By Tony Fitzpatrick
Introduction By Mickey Cartin
By Tony Fitzpatrick with Alex Kotlowitz
Extraordinary folk collages of Chicago, its people,
stories, and mysteries – and their influences on the
artist’s life. Fitzpatrick serves up fantasy and fact,
architectural landmarks, obscure neighborhood bars,
and his own great heroes, real and imagined.
Informed by wide reading, a fecund imagination, a
vast inventory of memorabilia (factual and
imaginary), and a great love for the Windy City,
Fitzpatrick creates Chicago into his Bombay.
Magical tales about Chicago in collage combining
drawing, text and applied elements like matchbooks,
postcards and ballgame stubs.This gorgeous book is
both personal diary and city chronicle.
Tony Fitzpatrick is an artist, actor and author of
Max and Gaby’s Alphabet. His work has exhibited at
The Art Institute of Chicago, Museum of
Contemporary Art in Chicago, and NYC’s MOMA.

Todd Schorr’s formative years were spent
surrounded by the atomic and space ages; by
Saturday morning cartoons and racks of comic
books; by Revell models, Mad Magazine, Mickey
Mouse, and Rat Fink.The compulsion to replicate
these images led to a formal art education and
exposure to a new set of influences drawn from the
world of advertising and commercial art.

By Frank Kozik
This is the influential poster artist’s
third book in which he ironically
appropriates all forms of pop cultural
references – cartoons, pop
subculture and propaganda for
posters, flyers, and album covers.
Kozik’s originals are held by some of
the foremost collectors of
contemporary rock art.

“Some people call me an artist. I
personally tend to disagree. There is no

I, for one, could not bear.”—Frank Kozik

IT FEEDS ITSELF
100 ARTISTS SEE SATAN
By Eric White
Edited by Mike McGee
Hyper-intensive, distortedly lucid
paintings explore the shifting
boundaries between beauty and
horror. Developing out of the artist’s
fascination with the illusionary
properties and constructions of film,
the paintings examine the varying
layers of human perception by
manipulating planes of focus and the
reliability of form and color. This
comprehensive overview of White’s
career includes work from four
gallery shows.

GRIS GRIMLY’S
WICKED NURSERY RHYMES II
RAGNAR’S KINGS OF THE ROAD
By Ragnar
Eight all-new, fiendishly-illustrated cautionary tales
exploring the dark dreams of early life. Childhood
standards are retold as dark and sinister rhymes
about atrociously-mannered children who meet
particularly unpleasant fates. Grimly’s work shares a
sensibility with that of Edward Gorey and Roald
Dahl.
A stylized, visual exploration of American hobo
culture from the wry and poignant Ragnar. The
story follows a fictitious trip through the American
underbelly by a charmingly louché gang of unsavory
traveling companions.
Gris Grimly, during his childhood in the Midwest,
was drawn to the exciting and scary world of
monsters. He admired the works of Ralph
Steadman, Edward Gorey, Egon Schiele and the
darker works of Dr. Seuss and Jim Henson.
Ragnar is an accomplished fine artist, animation
designer and illustrator. He is the creator of the
picture books Izzy’s Very Important Job and Got Your
Nose, which he directed as a short film for Disney.

tandem with the harshness of nature. Included are:
