Dead Letter Men

Résumé du livre

"Painter Nicola Tyson writes letters to dead artists (all men) in this limited edition book published by Petzel Gallery and Sadie Coles HQ. The letters, printed in classic typewriter font, are each paired with color photographs of Tyson next to self-portraits of the artists she writes, including Manet, Picasso, and Bacon. The idea for the book comes from Tyson's first letter to an unknowing recipient, "Dear Man on the Street", wherein she wittily chastises a street heckler." -- Publisher's description
