I'm proud to say that my recent painting, "Land Admiral Lefebvre's Fleet Makes Sail in the New World" was given a generous and substantial spread in this great new publication.
Many years in the making, The Ulysses Guide to the Los Angeles River is now printed, bound, and available for your ecstatic viewing pleasure. uglarbook.com
Here's the official blurb--
The Ulysses Guide to the Los Angeles River, Volume One of Three. To be published by gk editions.com, Fall 2008.
The culture of Los Angeles flows -- both figurative and quite literally -- through its central vein: The River. This book is borne from a fascination and love that precedes the attention that has shifted back to this flow. Fathered by the late Ulysses Zemanova and further nurtured by its co-authors/editors, The Ulysses Guide to the Los Angeles River (UGLAR) moves beyond the overexposed culture of graffiti and misunderstood world of scientific discovery. UGLAR wishes to bring to light the authors' interest, if only to spawn more within its readers.
UGLAR's first volume has two focuses: Biology and Art. Los Angeles-based artwork contributions from: Chaz Bojorquéz, ZES, Jack Rudy, Chuey Quintanar, Steve Martinez, Gregg Stone, Robert Meinhardt, Chris Brand, SinerLTS, Evan Skrederstu, Rob Sato, Ako Castuera ... and more. Interviews with artists also included.
