Amazon.com Review
Contemporary art critics are still struggling with the resurgence of outsider art, also called the new undergrounds. At the forefront of the clash between highbrow and lowbrow art is Robert Williams. From his early comics work with Zap to his recent magazine Juxtapoz, Williams keeps pushing the public's buttons with his politically incorrect art agenda. The Lowbrow Art of Robert Williams is the fundamental collection of his work, including 16 pages of full-color illustrations and almost 30 pages from Zap. The cover is possibly the most recognizable Williams piece because it was used on a Guns N' Roses album Appetite for Destruction.
