... IS COMIN OUT IN NOVEMBER !!!!!!
R Crumb's "Genesis" publisher NORTON is putting it out (well duh, you think they would've published un-famous me otherwise??) and -- check it out -- it will be in places like BARNES & NOBLE, yeeeah, you heard me, not just obscure comic-book shops, huge ass fuckn fancy mainstream book stores !!
Yes, i am a proud whorin' sell-out. But i am grateful to NORTON, a few people there believe in my stuff, plus our anal, obsessive compulsiveness about printing our artwork (i say we because my mom and dad and i all edited it) is very trying and they worked hard on my book...
Thanks NORTON !!
OK, it is called "SOPHIE CRUMB : EVOLUTION OF A CRAZY ARTIST" and i will be in NYC early november to do a signing - if all goes well - at Barnes&Noble on Union Square, my old neighborhood!
You should all come if its not too far, i am also doing a show in a hip LES gallery early november, will talk about it soon.
TELL A FRIEND !
(My editor said im not famous so you guys have to help create my "buzz", god what an obnoxious word... But there you have it.)
PS : the above image is the title page, but they made us censor out Nancy, Little Lulu & Betty Boop ; fuckn new laws about image protection or some such nonsense. Kind of like if i drew them sloppy enough so they'd be unrecognizable, then it wouldve been publishable, unbelievable, enraging !!! But hey, you want the cash, you give up all personal, moral ethic. WHAT! i have i child to feed !
ReplyDeleteSo retain the lesson kiddies : dont draw to precise, be sloppy, they'll love it, they'll publish you.
(gettin kinda cynical ovah here)
That's really great, I can't wait to get it!
ReplyDeleteMe recordaste a tu padre Robert Crumb en sus inicios, con las postales que hizo...
ReplyDeleteAquí en España decimos de tal palo tal astilla, no es verdad?
