Join Brazos Bookstore and Rice Gallery in celebrating artist Wayne White’s recent monograph, WAYNE WHITE: Maybe Now I’ll Get The Respect I So Richly Deserve, by design guru and art collector Todd Oldham. White will be present to speak and sign books. In WAYNE WHITE: Maybe Now I’ll Get The Respect I So Richly Deserve, Oldham shines the spotlight on the clever and warped world of artist Wayne White. From Wayne's early days as a production designer and puppet maker for the iconic TV show Pee-wee's Playhouse to his unmistakable and exquisitely rendered text paintings, this monograph is a comprehensive view of Wayne White's thirty plus years of work. The following week, see Wayne’s site-specific installation BIG LECTRIC FAN TO KEEP ME COOL WHILE I SLEEP, a tribute to legendary country singer George Jones, at Rice Gallery. To pre-order books, call Brazos Bookstore at 713.523.0701. For more information about the installation at Rice Gallery, visit ricegallery.org.
