A woman sits alone in a darkened boiler-room. A man enjoys hanging
suspended from the ceiling. A dirty room indicates the secret
sexual proclivities of its occupant. A curtain rustling in the
breeze portends fear and paranoia. " The purpose of a room derives
from the special nature of a room. A room is inside. This is what
people in rooms have to agree on, as differentiated from lawns,
meadows, fields, orchards. " Room Behavior is a book about rooms.
Composed of texts and images from the most varied sources including
crime novels, decorating manuals, anthropological studies,
performance art, crime scene photos, literature and the Bible, to
name a few Kovitz shapes the material through a process of highly
subjective editing, ordering and juxtaposition to create an
original, fascinating and darkly funny rumination about the
behavior of rooms and the people that they keep. ""Like the rooms
he depicts, the pages of this book are host to an evocative and
thought-provoking life of their own. - Uptown Magazine" " Strange
and clever. - Globe & Mail" " The book is a unique mini-coffee
table paperback, beautifully designed.... Much more than a gift
book, Room Behavior is something to pause and reflect on whenever
you think about rearranging your furniture. Fast Forward" " This is
a book to keep, to review again and again. Funny, but deep.
Umbrella" Treyf 25th Anniversary edition.""
