“For this new artist’s book, the Canadian designer/builder Wesley Mulvin has sketched a variety of faces and invented episodes, using both art history and his own history to illustrate comic pseudo-narratives. Using chance operations to title each drawing, he arrives at phrases like ‘What is nicer and easier than falling asleep?’ This phrase is repeated four times in variations for a portrait of a sleeping figure. In another drawing, a swimmer who may or may not be having trouble keeping afloat, appears to be asking the question ‘What shall we do in art?’ while a dancing devil is titled ‘Last Day of School.’”
34 titled b/w reproduced drawings and a handwritten text.
