Reviewed by Mr. Overeem (Language Arts) The text of this intriguing coffee table book is no revelation; it competently summarizes the details of Armstrong's life. However, the main exhibit--reproductions of the 600+ collages Armstrong created with news clipping and Scotch tape and dabs and smears of color to decorate the boxes of his reel-to-reel tapes--is a window into the mind of a very canny social observer. Certainly, the collages alone overturn the notion the Armstrong was a "natural" (thus, unconscious) genius; his mind was exceptionally engaged with (and amused by) the world around him. A weird and wonderful book. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
"The quintessential American artist Louis Armstrong was born in 1901 in New Orleans and died in 1971 in New York City, where he had lived for many years in a modest house in Queens. The house is now a museum in his honour. This work tells the story of Armstrong's life through his writings, scrapbooks and artworks".--Publisher's description.
