{"product_id":"welcome-to-painterland-anastasia-aukeman-9780520289451","title":"Welcome to Painterland: Bruce Conner and the Rat Bastard Protective Association","description":"The Rat Bastard Protective Association was an inflammatory, close-knit community of artists who lived and worked in a building they dubbed Painterland in the Fillmore neighborhood of midcentury San Francisco. The artists who counted themselves among the Rat Bastards--which included Joan Brown, Bruce Conner, Jay DeFeo, Wally Hedrick, Michael McClure, and Manuel Neri--exhibited a unique fusion of radicalism, provocation, and community. Geographically isolated from a viable art market and refusing to conform to institutional expectations, they animated broader social and artistic discussions through their work and became a transformative part of American culture over time. Anastasia Aukeman presents new and little-known archival material in this authorized account of these artists and their circle, a colorful cultural milieu that intersected with the broader Beat scene.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anastasia Aukeman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520289455\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520289451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/09\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.20h x 7.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Anastasia Aukeman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43919955230975,"sku":"9780520289451","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_4a348294-e8fa-4fcf-892f-4e7a624f79b1.jpg?v=1680812837","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/welcome-to-painterland-anastasia-aukeman-9780520289451","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
