| |   |   | Raymond Pettibon: WhuytuypEdited and with text by Lynn Kost.
Whuytuyp compiles work by Raymond Pettibon (born 1957) done over the past five years, from artist’s books and prints to animations and installations. Since 2001, several changes in Pettibon’s style have been increasingly evident, most notably in his use of broader brushes, even more expressive brushstrokes and a shift towards bolder color. These developments became consolidated around 2006, in the earliest drawings included in this volume. Also apparent throughout Whuytuyp is a more philosophical tone to the language used, and more overt social commentary--as well as an expansion of the range of references to include film, illustration and cartoons. What continues to characterize Pettibon’s art is its ability to break and recombine discourses, liberating those sidelined, repressed and taboo aspects of American culture and creating his unique visual-linguistic polyphony.

| | FROM THE ARTBOOK BLOG CORY REYNOLDS | DATE 9/12/2012 Featured image, a 2009 collage work by Raymond Pettibon entitled "Untitled (And as True)," is reproduced from Whuytuyp, the newly released exhibition catalog for the artist's recent one-person show at Kunstmuseum Luzern, Switzerland. At bottom, the collage reads, "And as true to life as if it had been taken from the notebook of a cardiologist, but sketched in this case to express nothing but sweet, exquisite emotion—if you will have it. And who would think him unkind for that, and not accept it, any more than the surgeon would despise him for being afflicted with a serious disturbance of the circulation."
