By John Lurie.
New York art gadfly and member of avant jazz ensemble, the Lounge Lizards, Lurie creates oddly affecting paintings shrouded in mystery. Known for his work with film-maker Jim Jarmusch and his own cable TV show Fishing With John, Lurie is also an accomplished painter, offering dream-like canvasses of minimalist absurdity. His paintings are a mixture of the curious and the sublime--they mock the absurdity of language and social conventions and the titles are great! Brief essays by Carter Foster, Flea, James Nares and Stephane Aquin.
