Seller's Description:
Good (EX-LIBRARY, indicated only by a stamp on the ffep; wraps are sunned and worn lightly overall; texblock edges are lightly worn/scuffed/smudged; interior is clean; binding is solid. ) Pink illustrated wraps with yellow and black lettering; 87 pp.; richly illustrated in color. Lari Pittman's meticulously rendered paintings employ a complex mix of symbols and images to create dense and compelling narratives on love, violence, and desire. Drawing upon design, folk art, and decorative traditions, Pittman's brightly colored paintings incorporate and rework a range of styles and genres--Victorian silhouettes, social realist murals, and Mexican retablos--to conjure a hallucinatory effect unique in contemporary painting. Pittman has earned numerous accolades in the art world and has been included in the Venice Biennale, Documenta X, and four Whitney Biennials. --WorldCat.
