Description

Revenge publishing? A new genre? Or has it been around since writers first put pen to paper? Isnt all writing to some degree a means to avenge an oversight or a rejection, intending to set the record straight? A number of pieces in this collection which were commissioned, accepted, and paid for, never appeared for one reason or another, whether devious or common: books dont always cross the finish line. Years go by. Patience evaporates. Corrected Proofs aims to seek remedy. In addition to previously unpublished pieces, a number of essays and interviews were written specially for this collection: on Lutz Bacher and Charles Ray, with Arnold J. Kemp. There are heroes and villains, from the assassins John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald, to Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Cady Noland and Steven Parrino. Here the reader encounters usual suspects in unexpected context-Marcel Duchamp, Ed Ruscha and Andy Warhol-and artists recently rediscovered-Bob Smith and Stephen Varble-alongside Lee Lozano, the January 6 insurrection, and The Fall.
