• Summary

  "100 More Jokes from the Book of the Dead presents a collaboration between poet John Yau and visual artist Archie Rand. Yau and Rand have collaborated with each other for nearly 20 years in a variety of mediums. In creating 91 images simultaneously without revision, Yau and Rand sat at a table and passed each other the etching plates, both creating and responding concurrently to each other’s work. The spontaneous, often combustive results reflect the poet’s and artist’s dismissal of editing as a safety net” (Printed Matter)
