The Residents: A Sight for Sore Eyes, Vol. 1 (Deluxe Edition)
Features
Description
“Aaron Tanner's The Residents: A Sight for Sore Eyes is on par with what The Beatles did for music—he raised the bar as to what a book can be. The 356-page coffee table sensation is an EXPERIENCE, a HAPPENING, one that I will indulge myself in again, and again, and again.”
Monte Beauchamp, BLAB!
“Many of the book's contents are things I'd hoped to find inside, but nearly as many are treasures I didn't know I'd been missing.”
Oliver Hall, Dangerous Minds
“The book is a pantheon of performance royalty.”
Steven Heller, PRINT
