Project Statement
by J.Drucker
This book is typical of Gary Richman's work: found images, idiosyncratic texts, and peculiar, frequently jarring, non-sequitors and juxtapositions.Filled with peculiar tales, many of them dark, it is organized around the ideas of verbal and non-verbal communication and various forms of dysfunctionality that attend to miscommunication.The pages are sequenced A to Z, with an illustrated letter featuring on each among the other images that are linked in quasi-rebus like relations.
