€115,00

Richter Verlag, 2001. Hardcover. 207 pp. 29 × 24,5 cm. Text in English and Dutch. Used. VG. Published on the occasion of the landmark 2001–2002 exhibition at Stedelijk Museum; curated by Jan Christiaan Braun, this show achieved enduring international impact—and influence that continues today—via Storr’s accompanying accompanying catalog essay -a must among art publications-, a tour de force that captured and advanced the maverick sensibility shared by the exhibition’s five artists (Work by Robert Crumb, Mike Kelley, Jim Nutt, Peter Saul and H.C. Westermann): a small cadre of Americans united by their interest in the unsightly aspects of contemporary life, a challenge to the establishment and avant-garde standards, a flair for blending meticulous facture with audacious vulgarity, and a distinct linguistic style frequently misread as mere jest or anti-intellectualism.
