Dave Muller: Connections

Dave Muller, known as a dynamic and multitalented force in the Los Angeles art scene, is the subject of this full-color catalogue, published to coincide with an exhibition curated by Amada Cruz, director of the CCS Museum. Muller's ongoing series of drawings—his personal interpretations of exhibition announcements and invitations for shows by artists whose work he admires—is the centerpiece of the book. Inspired by amateur flyers created by fans of indie-rock bands, Muller began producing watercolors based on the actual exhibition announcements of the artists. While these acts of homage always retain the factual information, they subvert and reinterpret the original with wry humor—each work is ostensibly about the advertised artist, yet it is also about Muller. Color images are presented alongside informative essays.
