Original Wraps, Paperback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket as Issued. First Edition. A FINE, like-new, bright, clean, tight, collector-worthy copy sans flaws. FLAT-SIGNED by artist Travis Somerville on the title page. Book published in conjunction with the 2009 exhibition entitled "Dedicated to the proposition,…" exhibited at the Ben Maltz Gallery, Otis College of Art and Design, Los Angeles, CA. From the Foreword: "Dedicated to the proposition".is a selection of drawings, paintings, and sculpture by Travis Somerville. His subject matter is racial discrimination and the economic and political structures used to perpetuate oppression in this country. He intentionally uses confrontational and stereotypical imagery for its nostalgic familiarity and its ability to evoke discomfort in order to hit a nerve or stir up an unconscious reaction. It is a body of work designed to provoke a complex and personal conversation about the ever-shifting dynamics of race, power, and prejudice." PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in the remarkable, arresting full color artworks of Somerville with many full page. LH1.
