RAYMOND PETTIBON: Whatever it is you're looking for you won't find it here
Vienna: KUNSTHALLE Wien, 2006. First Edition. Hardcover. This detailed catalogue was published in conjunction with the first major Raymond Pettibon retrospective in Austria, for which the artist created a new wall painting. The contributors focus on different aspects of Pettibon's art: his inspiration from the pictorial arsenal of film noir and the American design of the thirties and forties, as well as his intense relationship with the cartoon figures Vavoom and Gumby. Also includes an extensive interview with Pettibon that conveys an idea of his intellectual microcosm and the productive energy unfolding in his work. Quarto: [228] pp. with more than 500 illustrations, many in color. Original printed paper wrappers. Some mild edgewear; else near fine in the printed vellum paper dust jacket. Near fine / Near fine.
