Gonzo: The Art

Rating:
Summary: Something Wicked in Fear and Loathing
Review: Steadman takes the obscene to the edge with his book "Gonzo: The Art." He recounts his maturation in art from his drawings for Hunter S. Thompson's "The Kentucky Derby is Decadant and Depraved" to his own new ideas on what gonzo is. He even shows a portrait of what he thinks Thompsons parents were like, riding on the outside of the desert, maybe around Barstow, in the Big Red Shark. All in all, Steadman is an affront to your senses and will throw your world for a loop. Enjoy the ride!!

Summary: utter nonsense capitulating under 27 burning Bridges
Review: This book is full of utterly amazing works of art. The talent that lays in the fingers of Ralph Steadman is mind boggling. 32 monkeys swinging on a branch 31 fall how many are left. I saw an ostrich once with it's head in the sand i didn't know what to do so I ran up and kicked it. Then we sat down to tea and crumpets and had a jolly old good time. Look out for Gargantuon he looks like a Neandrathal and he wears skirts and tube tops. He likes to drown little baby kitties, If you see him please call 1-800-cave-man. Have a jolly good day love Pokey.

Summary: Makes people Ralph
Review: This is one of the greatest compendiums of contemporary art I own. It has occupied pride-of-place on my coffee table since two hours after it arrived (had to go through it first), which means every visitor to my home sees it immediately upon sitting down. Reactions have been mixed-nobody disagrees as to Mr. Steadman's talent level, though quite a few have wished that he would choose different subjects to skewer with his warped pen. On the other hand, those who have been introduced to the work of this artist and enjoyed it now have the volume in their own homes. Not for the faint of heart, but rewarding to those who look at things slaunchwise through their own dark mirrors of the soul.
