In Revisionist Art, Bob Dylan offers silkscreened covers of popular
magazines from the last half century that somehow escaped history's
notice. As Luc Sante says in his introduction to this collection,
they seem to emanate, "from a world just slightly removed from
ours--a world a bit more honest about its corruption, its chronic
horniness, its sweat, its body odor." Art critic B. Clavery
provides a history of Revisionist Art, from cave drawings, to
Gutenberg, to Duchamp, Picasso, and Warhol. The book also features
vivid commentaries on the work, (re)acquainting the reader with
such colorful historical figures as the Depression-era politician
Cameron Chambers, whose mustache became an icon in the gay
underworld, and Gemma Burton, a San Francisco trial attorney who
used all of her assets in the courtroom. According to these works,
history is not quite what we think it is. Praise for Revisionist
Art: "Revisionist Art may be the strangest move Dylan has made in a
long while, but it's also his most brilliantly uproarious foray
into full-blown comedy." -Rolling Stone, four-star review
