Strange Ritual: Words and Pictures

Rating:
Summary: Unexpected photos
Review: Never in my life did I think I would enjoy looking at pictures of a chair turned on its various sides - but it works. As with all of Byrne's art, you see something photographed that you never thought of as a model for an art piece. Byrne's eye for detail and cunning sense of "capturing the right shot" works well in the book. A must-have for any Byrne fan and a must-see for those interested in clever photography.

Summary: Pictographic Melody
Review: Strange Rituals is just that; a study by David Byrne of how we look at the world, see the divine in the strange and take joy from it. Overall the free verse that accompaines the pictures adds to the books attraction. Some are stories, others seem meaningless. But this is David Byrne after all.... If you like his music buy it - otherwise only if your into umm... Strange Things :)
