Satiro-Plastic: The Sketchbook of Gary Panter

Satiro-Plastic: The Sketchbook of Gary Panter by Panter, Gary. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781896597867.

Gary Panter exposes his inner thoughts and workings with the first of a three-volume sketchbook series. What makes the original punk rock artist tick? In what will be a three-volume series, Satiro-Plastic is Gary Panter’s sketchbook from December 1999 to November 2001. This fascimile edition of the pocket sketchbook diary shows the everyday creative spasms of this iconic designer-painter-cartoonist-illustrator. In his introduction, Panter explains the first rule of the madness of his sketchbook: the pages and drawings are not in chronological order. Scenes from a family vacation to Oaxaca, Mexico; Brooklyn still lifes; and 9/11 images are interspersed with comics and illustrations buzzing with excitement and manic genius.
