Radikaler Chronist der US-Musikszene
Raymond Pettibon: Nervous Breakdown is the authoritative compendium of an artist who has shaped alternative culture like few others. For the first time, this volume gathers every album cover using Pettibon’s artwork since 1979—from Black Flag and Sonic Youth to the Foo Fighters and Lana Del Rey. Deeply rooted in the Southern California punk scene, his work combines biting satire with poetic reflections on American society.
Published to accompany the exhibition at the Wilhelm-Hack-Museum in Ludwigshafen, the book presents all covers—from LPs to cassettes—from the Stefan Thull Collection. In addition to a detailed catalogue raisonné, it features exclusive texts by experts and companions such as Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth), Max Dax, Robert Eikmeyer and Ulrich Loock. An indispensable reference for fans and collectors at the intersection of contemporary art and music history.
Raymond Pettibon (b. 1957) explores American iconography through an influential blend of image and text. His work fuses pop culture aesthetics with language from mass media and classic writers like Walt Whitman, Marcel Proust, and William Blake.
