An artist's book by visual artist and legendary indie rocker Kim Gordon, this volume is an intoxicating look into Gordon's dreamy visual world.

Kim Gordon: Performing/Guzzling is the first in a series of books by Rizzoli and Nieves that consists of beautifully designed books by artists, photographers, and designers who have substantially contributed to the texture of artistic culture.

Table of ContentsReviewsFor decades now, Sonic Youth's stalwart bassist-guitarist Kim Gordon has been a beacon of cool, inspiring generations of girls to try to make their own noise. With Performing/Guzzling , a sumptious art book released by Rizzoli and Nieves, Gordon is now inspiring these same girls to make art. NYLON<br><br> Performing/Guzzling functions more as a hard bound artist journal than a monograph filled with page after page of Gordon's ghost like watercolors, text paintings, lyrics/poetry, and photography. The watercolor works are by far the most accomplished, inspired by on-stage performances where the faces in the audience become a dreamy and ethereal blur of color... Performing/Guzzling is a must have book for both artist book enthusiasts and Sonic Youth fans alike!
