Amazon.com description: Product Description: For over twenty years, Raymond Pettibon's drawings have earned an international following for their fluid style and youthful, iconoclastic outlook. His work is acclaimed for its wit and erudite eccentricities, and reveals an affinity for a diverse group of authors-from Baudelaire to Henry James to Mickey Spillane-whose quotations abound in the drawings. This volume is a catalogue raisonn of his artist books produced between 1978 and 1998, many of which are now extremely rare and highly collected in both the art world and underground music circles. Popularized at first by small independent music labels and publishers, these booklets and zines were originally available only in very small print runs-editions sizes ranged from 30 to 150 copies, where Pettibon's rough yet cultivated style became synonymous with the late 70s and 80s underground aesthetic. Presenting over a hundred of Pettibon's publications-32 printed in their entirety-this new paperback edition is an important look at the development of one of the most significant artists of the last quarter century.
