Trusty Sarcophagus Co. / Ricard, Rene., 1990

 Item
Identifier: CC-03264-3313
Scope and Contents This book is a collection of reproductions of the Author's holographic poem-paintings, with the transcriptions on facing pages. NT Times Obituary 2/6/2014: "I've never worked a day in my life," Rene Ricard, then 32, wrote in an essay for The New York Times Op-Ed page in 1978. "If I did it would probably ruin my career, which at the moment is something of a cross between a butterfly and a lap dog." Mr. Ricard wasn't being disingenuous, really, though as a poet, an influential art critic and a painter in his own right, perhaps he was selling himself short. He was, however, more a personage than a professional anything, a notorious aesthete who roamed Manhattan's contemporary art scene with a capacious, autodidactic erudition and a Wildean flamboyance. He was a member of Andy Warhol's cohort beginning in the 1960s, appearing in a handful of Warhol's films (including "The Andy Warhol Story," in which he played the title role) and an habitue of the Factory, the Warhol studio that was...

Identifier: CC-43917-46026
Scope and Contents Brion Gysin (1916-1986) was a multifaceted artist whose fertile mind and wide range of original ideas were a source of inspiration for artists of the Beat Generation in Paris, as well as to innovative artists and performers such as David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Keith Haring, and Laurie Anderson in the next generation. Painter, writer, sound poet, tape composer, lyricist, and performance artist, Gysin is remembered particularly for his evocative paintings of the North African desert in the 1950s and his original calligraphic abstractions based on Japanese and Arabic scripts. The chance discovery by Gysin of the cut-up technique (later developed and refined by William S. Burroughs) and the concept of permutated poems gave rise to new and original forms of sound art wordplay, striking not only in print but also in recordings or live performance. Gysin's inventive ideas also extended to the Dreamachine and to collages of text and photographs. This is the first comprehensive publication on...

Turbulence, 2001

 Item
Identifier: CC-37339-39191
Scope and Contents With his unique graphic and typographic style, Drescher's disturbing book reflects the turbulence of the twenty-first century in word and image. Its theme is particularly timely relevant to the destruction and turmoil of the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York on September 11, 2001, close to the date that this book is being catalogued. "Turbulence is an intricately produced artist's book that catalogues Drescher's vivid world of images, and a visual narrative that follows one man through the troubled past, an uncertain future, and the enduring timelessness of myth." BOOKLIST review on Amazon.com Although best known as a highly regarded children's book illustrator, Drescher squarely aims this elegantly designed artist's book at adults, and sophisticated adults at that. He offers a loose interpretation of the Hindu myth of creation, bracketing it with a vague narrative about a traveler setting off on the "ocean of bliss" and throwing in a passage depicting a...
