Customer Reviews

A "must" for all Ed Paschke fans and American art students.

One of the most prominent, innovative and influential figures of Chicago's "imagist" movement (an offshoot of the Pop Art era) was Ed Paschke. His paintings spanning a twenty-five year period were hallmarked by themes of confrontation with social and cultural values, and explored personality based media-based images including those of famous celebrities such as Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and a legion of anonymous strippers, pimps, and social outcasts of every category and classification. In this outstanding work enhanced with 63 color plates and 29 b/w photographs, Neal Benezra, Dennis Adrian, Carol Schreiber, and John Yau collaborate to showcase the work, thought and influence of Ed Paschke for a new generation of art students and aficionados.
