If you like art/ calliraphy, this book is for you.Why did Burroughs (and so many others) revere this man? This book will tell you why. The reproductions are top notch and the bios are not to be missed.

This review is from: Brion Gysin: Tuning in to the Multimedia Age (Paperback)
Gysin's work is on par with (and goes beyond) abstract painters such as Mark Tobey. His combines Zen brush painting with a cosmonaut's vision. Stare long enough at his work and find your own "Port of Entry." Included in the book are his early surrealist drawings and desert scenes--very difficult to find reproductions of these. My only disappointment with the book is the long biographical bit lifted straight from the Geiger biography. Anyone truly interested in Gysin would own both books! I would've also liked to read more about Gysin's meetings with Genesis P'Orridge. These are very minor things and definitely do not mar the book's presentation. A truly remarkable book. Hats off to the author!
