Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Armed with her sketch pad, Sue Coe traveled across the United States, following the path from factory farm to feedlot, to the "killing floor" of the slaughterhouse. Her firsthand observations are rendered in her diaries ad artwork. Her illustrations evoke the dark, cavernous abattoir, slippery with blood, steam, and body heat. Like Upton Sinclairıs The Jungle, Dead Meat indicts the system of corruption and consumption that exacts such a toll from its citizens. Born in England and educated at the Royal College of Art in London, Sue Coe moved to New York in 1972. She regularly contributes illustrations to the New York Times, the New Yorker, the Nation, and Entertainment Weekly. Her work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, among others. Her most recent solo exhibition was at the Hirshhorn Museum. Radical journalist Alexander Cockburn is an author and nationally syndicated columnist. He writes regularly for the Nation and edits the newsletter Counterpunch. Tom Regan is president of the Culture and Animals Foundation.
"This is political and social commentary at its most powerful, through art, in the tradition of Goya, David, and Bacon. 'Dead Meat' is also propaganda at its most powerful."
St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 05/05/1996
Review:"Her diaries are nearly as gripping as the visuals, though no words quite match a pictures's ability to evoke sheer horror and piteousness."
