Product Information
Co-founder of the New Wave band Devo, Mark Mothersbaugh has been making art since before the band's inception in the early 1970s and continues to the present. This body of work presents a unique combination of cultural criticism and personal expression through drawings, films, paintings, sculpture and music. But more than that, his work provides a missing link in the history of contemporary art and culture. At once an artist, musician and tinkerer, he offers a key to understanding the current state of art, with its hybridity, subjectivity and fluid boundaries. This book offers the most comprehensive presentation of Mothersbaugh's work to date, not only revealing his unique artistic voice, but also asserting his role in the intersecting legacies that have formed contemporary culture.
