Artburn: The Twenty-First Century Shots from a Guerilla Artist

By Robbie Conal and Howard Zinn(Preface)

"America's foremost street artist." --Washington Post

"I can say with absolute certainty that none of these pictures are resident in the White House." --Official White House Spokesperson

An RDV Books publication.

Artburn is a collection of the best pages from the last five years of Robbie Conal's satirical monthly column in the LA Weekly, updated with background factoids and secret war stories about his subjects, including the likes (and dislikes) of: Dubya, Dick Cheney, John Ashcroft, Rush Limbaugh, Bill, Hillary and Monica, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, even Bill Gates, among others. Artburn reveals production shots of the original pages Robbie and his midnight deadline crew perpetrated at the very alternative LA Weekly, and a chapter of images and voices of the denizens themselves. We've even thrown in a dozen late-night remixes that were too hot for the Weekly to print. Artburn is RDV Books' second publication, following the acclaimed It's a Free Country: Personal Freedom in America After September 11, which features Robbie Conal's "Tower of Babble" on the back cover.
