{"product_id":"paul-chan-paul-chan-9781936440009","title":"Paul Chan: The Essential and Incomplete Sade for Sade's Sake","description":"Paul Chan's monumental projection \u003ci\u003eSade for Sade's Sake\u003c\/i\u003e takes the work of the notorious pornographer and philosopher, the Marquis de Sade (1740-1814), as a departure point for a nearly six-hour-long rhythmic study of bodily ecstasy and bodily repetition. Chan brilliantly renders the foremost quality of Sade's pornography--its fanatical appetite not just for the identifying of sexual possibilities, but for their enumeration and classification--as a rhythmic play of silhouetted bodies that fragment into parts, recombine and atomize, in a mechanized copulation poised between manic repetition and wild abandon. This artist's book brings together for the first time the drawings, writings, notes and fonts created during the production of \u003ci\u003eSade for Sade's Sake\u003c\/i\u003e. It elaborates the full scope and thoughtfulness of the projection as a fascinating treatment of sex and eroticism, compulsion and joy, the social body and the sexual body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Chan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1936440008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781936440009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Badlands Unlimited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.08h x 8.48w x 0.56d","brand":"Paul Chan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442669433087,"sku":"9781936440009","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_27b0e377-7a2c-4ef2-802e-30948b0536c2.jpg?v=1777198964","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/paul-chan-paul-chan-9781936440009","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
