{"product_id":"9789198324365","title":"Brion Gysin: His Name Was Master: Texts and Interviews by Genesis Breyer P-Orridge \u0026 Peter Christopherson","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrion Gysin (1916–86) has been an incredibly influential artist and iconoclast: his development of the “cut-up” technique with William S. Burroughs has inspired generations of writers, artists and musicians. Gysin was also a skilled networker and revered expat: together with his friend Paul Bowles, he more or less constructed the post-beatnik romanticism for life and magic in Morocco, and was also a protagonist in an international gay culture with inspirational reaches in both America and Europe. Not surprisingly, Gysin has become something of a cult figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the artists he inspired is Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, who collaborated with both Gysin and Burroughs in the 1970s, during his work with Throbbing Gristle and COUM Transmissions. The interviews made by P-Orridge have since become part of a New Wave\/Industrial mythos. This volume presents them in their entirety alongside three texts on Gysin by P-Orridge, plus an introduction. Additional material includes a substantial interview by British punk journalist Jon Savage. This book is an exclusive insight into the mind of a man P-Orridge describes as “a kind of Leonardo da Vinci of the last century,” and a fantastic complement to existing biographies and monographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tatiana Orlov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059151323376,"sku":"9789198324365","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789198324365_p0.jpg?v=1763672510","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789198324365","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
