{"product_id":"9781623260415","title":"Wayne White: Maybe Now I'll Get The Respect I So Richly Deserve","description":"\u003cp\u003eDesign guru and art collector Todd Oldham shines the spotlight on the clever and warped world of artist Wayne White. From Wayne's early days as a production designer and puppet maker for the iconic TV show \"Pee-Wee's Playhouse\" to his unmistakable and exquisitely rendered text paintings, this monograph is a comprehensive view of Wayne White's oeuvre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWayne is a unique wordsmith, brilliantly juxtaposing irreverent and humorous phrases over existing thrift store paintings that together create a completely original and fictional landscape. Influenced by both his upbringing in rural Tennessee and a very sophisticated knowledge of art history. Wayne White's sensibility is completely singular and distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWayne White's warped and perspectival words integrate into seemingly benign pastoral landscapes, creating a completely surreal experience. Wayne's expert painting chops and detailed attention to lighting and reflection place the \"new\" text directly in its \"original\" setting. Text paintings such as \"Donald Judd was a Son of a Bitch Wrecked His Train in a Whorehouse Ditch,\" \"Poon,\" and \"Maybe Now I'll Get The Respect I So Richly Deserve\" are a welcome departure from the more-often-than-not self-aggrandizing art world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ammo Books, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060723204336,"sku":"9781623260415","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781623260415_p0.jpg?v=1763862889","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781623260415","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
