RAYMOND PETTIBON/ TO WIT

The works ranged from depictions of Joe DiMaggio as a young boy, B. Dylan... to pieces dovetailing popular imagery with quotations f rom Proust, Faulkner, Henry James, Flaubert or the Bible, and addressing themes of violence,sex, evolution, religion, politics, lite rature, art history and sports. This volume documents both the making of these works during Pettibon's intensive tenure in the space and the finished works themselves
