Volume 1 - 1st printing. Art by TIM BISKUP. In this new collection of paintings, Tim Biskup continues where he left off with his 100 Paintings book. Birds, beasts, shriners, and showgirls are among the frolicking inhabitants of Biskup's bizarre, colorful world. Acting as a kind of workshop for new ideas, the tiny paintings in The Jackson 500 Volume One, are spontaneous compositions that contain the buds of many of Biskup's recurring characters, themes, and color theories. This volume contains the first one hundred in the series of five hundred business card-sized paintings, reproduced at actual size. A fine document of process and inspiration! Hardcover, 5 1/2-in. x 5 1/2-in., 112 pages, full color. Cover price $14.95.
