The Outlaw Bible of American Art

The Outlaw Bible of American Art is a 700-page revolutionary art world shocker: a Who’s Who alternative canon of marginalized or famed audodidactic paint-slinging loners who followed their own outrageous, sometimes catastrophic visions to the heights of fame or the depths of Hell.

Documenting movements from the post-war to the present, this anthological barbaric yawp contains manifestos, essays, interviews and biographies from some of the most cutting edge American art writers plus hundreds of full color and black and white images and rare photos.

Includes Boris Lurie, Forrest Bess, Gertrude Stein, Tom Wolfe, Dash Snow, Carlo McCormick, Annie Sprinkle, John Yau, Allen Ginsberg, R. Crumb, Claes Oldenberg, Thomas Nozkowski, Richard Kern, Joe Coleman, Molly Crabapple, David Choe, Robert Williams, Nick Zedd, David Wojnarowicz and hundreds more.
