While the artist has been the subject of several exhibition catalogues and one trade monograph in 2001, this volume is the most comprehensive consideration of his work to date. This edition is in a reduced format and much lower price, but with all of the original content included.
What emerges in this volume more than others produced on his work is Pettibon's ability to be as political as he is poetic, and as deft with his deceptively simple illustrational style as any great artist with a paintbrush and canvas. The most expansive book on the important and influential artist's work to date, Pettibon's longtime group of interlocutors (including curators, art and music critics, and artists) offer a vision of the artist's genius that has yet to be fully explored.
