This artist s book emerged from a joint project between the writer/musician Richard Hell and the painter Christopher Wool and focuses on their mutual interest in experiences associated with reading. The authors create images using a selection of word pairings that are both conceptually estranged yet subliminally connected. The result is by turns a reading and a non-reading book which balances precariously between the worlds of rational ordered sense and the realm of polymorphous chaotic association.
