The Arts and Innards of Russell U. Richards! is both an art book and memoir tracing my struggles with a devastating chronic illness, and how art helped me live through it, with beautiful full-color reproductions throughout. It is also the definitive chronicle of my retired former style:
“Russell Richards’ work is electrifying- sometimes brutal, and always uncompromising. Yet his violent and erotically charged world is tempered with a wry sense of humor (served black.) His complex and original visions have left me gasping for breath and lusting for more for almost 20 years.”
