Paperback. Zustand: New. Stuart Sutcliffe (1940â"62) is infamously renowned for his short tenure as âthe fifth Beatleâ and original bass player for the bandâ"and for his tragic death from a brain hemorrhage at the young age of twenty-one. Less well known are the stylistic contributions he made to both the Beatlesâ"from creating the name of the band with John Lennon to inspiring their original âmop topâ cutsâ"and to the Liverpool and Hamburg art scenes. This volume combines fascinating details from Sutcliffeâs time in the pubs, flats, and classrooms of Liverpool and Hamburg with an exploration of Sutcliffeâs art. With contributions from Stuartâs lover and the acclaimed photographer Astrid Kirchherr, eminent art historian Donald Kuspitt and writer John Savage, as well as thirty-two color images from Sutcliffeâs work and numerous unpublished black-and-white photos of the artist and members of the Beatles, Stuart Sutcliffe: A Retrospective is a visually stunning celebration of the man, his music, and his art.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Pictorial hardcover. The influence of William Burroughs on popular culture has been enormous: the Beatles, the Stones, Andy Warhol, the Velvet Underground, David Bowie, Keith Haring, David Cronenberg and Sonic Youth have all paid homage to the Beat writer in various media. While Burroughs' life story and sexual/narcotic proclivities have had their own legacy, the "cut-up" method that he developed in the 1960s with his friend Brion Gysin has proved his most generative legacy. Writers, musicians and artists of all kinds have adopted this chance procedure, which involves the cutting and splicing of language--or image, or sound--to produce unexpected conjunctions and scramble consensus reality. "The cut-up is actually closer to the facts of perception than representational painting," Burroughs wrote of the method. "Take a walk down a city street and put down what you have just seen on canvas . . . consciousness is a cut up." This compendium of Burroughs' artwork, collages, cut-ups, scrapbooks, photographs, films, ephemera and paintings offers a full overview of his visual output, emphasizing the importance and legacy of the cut-up method. In addition, it examines the significance of his tape cut-up experiments of the 60s and 70s, as well as his practice of collaboration across media. Containing much previously unseen material, Cut-ups, Cut-ins, Cut-outs: The Art of William Burroughs is a definitive publication on a writer and artist whose influence only increases with time.…
