Art. Poetry. 100 MORE JOKES FROM THE BOOK OF THE DEAD documents a collaboration between poet John Yau and visual artist Archie Rand. Both have collaborated with each other for nearly 20 years in a variety of mediums (watercolors, paintings, the comic book, among others). The 91 images in the book were created simultaneously without revision, thus questioning the notion of etching as an art of refinement. Archie Rand has exhibited in more than 80 solo and 200 group exhibitions. Other John Yau books also available from SPD include RADIANT SILHOUETTE, BERLIN DIPTYCHON and MY SYMPTOMS.
