Our first publication and the first to be published monograph on Gus Van Sant’s paintings brings together a wide overview of his works. Sequenced in an achronological associative manner, the book presents different series vis-à-vis, focusing on recurring motifs and themes throughout different mediums, across his entire body of work.
The hardcover of the publication is bound inside out, giving the suggestion of having been ripped off, and flipped around. The outside cover is two test screen-prints, alluding to Gus Van Sant’s artistic practice as the flipside of his well known career in making movies.
