Summary

A book of funny, bitter, angry, grotesque, strange, snappish and affectionate drawings by jazz musician and actor John Lurie.~ Although Lurie has been making his naughty and often Surrealistic drawings for 20 years, it was not until 2004 that he began to exhibit them--and then to instant acclaim. In 2005, the "New York Times" critic Roberta Smith described Lurie's work, some of which she deemed appropriate for "The New Yorker," as operating "somewhere in the gap between William Wegman's drolly captioned early drawings and Jean Michel-Basquiat's acerbic diagrammatic images." In "Learn to Draw," 65 black-and-white line drawings are printed across from enigmatically hilarious descriptive titles, such as "eye punch francis bacon," "lap dance," or "arab cutting eels."
