Weirdo Noir by Matt Dukes Jordan

In this follow-up volume to our successful title Weirdo Deluxe readers will find lots of spooky, moody lowbrow/pop-surrealist artwork that centers on goth themes. Goth aestetics and subject matter not only influence much pop culture these days, but also inform artwork by many rising-star lowbrow artists.

Matt Dukes Jordan is the author of WEIRDO DELUXE: THE WILD WORLD OF POP SURREALISM AND LOWBROW ART, published by Chronicle Books in San Francisco in 2005. He is a published poet and short story author, as well as a novelist, screenwriter, and playwright. He's performed stand-up comedy, recited poems, and directed films. Since 1990, he has worked as a journalist. He has lived in several areas of Los Angeles and is well-versed in the city. He rented two apartments within blocks of one of Bukowski's homes (on Mariposa), so he's familiar with East Hollywood. For this book, he has visited many of Bukowski's haunts in Los Angeles, as well as interviewing Bukowski's pals. He's also buddies with one of Bukowski's best friends, Neeli Cherkovski.
