Description

This book features the signature ink-wash drawings of the significant innovator of figurative art and California-based artist Raymond Pettibon (b.1957), known internationally for his drawings, which combine cartoon-like images with short, enigmatic texts. His irresistibly compelling and witty drawings reveal all the deviations within American culture - in film, crime, TV, sex, art, religion, sports, comic books and more.

A late 1970s underground fanzine artist and designer of record covers for Sonic Youth and Black Flag, Pettibon has risen to become a world-renowned figure.
