Trenton Doyle Hancock has Arrived!....in the library that is....





Trenton Doyle Hancock: Me a Mound Me a Mound combines biblical allusions, gags, food, and sex as it describes their saga in Hancock's laconic Texan prose and lays it out in his explosively colorful paintings. It's filled with new work created just for the book and a comprehensive overview of Hancock's oeuvre, on top of the entire Mounds versus Vegans saga to date, plus trading cards and inserts.

If you would like to see more on Trenton Doyle Hancock don't miss the 4 Painters lecture featuring Hancock on November 15th at 12:30 at the MFA!

Some of Hancock's biggest influences are also in the library, Gary Panter and Art Spiegelman.
Both Panter and Spiegelman are known for other projects along with their work. Panter is responsible for the sets of 80's TV show Pee-Wees Playhouse and Spiegelman is the co-editor and chief of Raw Magazine and played an important roll in the conception of the Garbage Pail Kids.
