An amusing collection of drawings likely
intended for his short stories and articles in
magazines and various publications. Many
touch upon themes of art criticism and the artist’s creative process and include titles such as “The
Marquis de Sade Dreams,” “Negation of the Movies,” “The Art Critic,” and the satirical “Power
of the Imperfect” which shows flies defacing Michelangelo’s “Creation of Adam” with paint guns
and brushes.
