That's an accurate blurb. On the page to the left, there's a close up of the pair of objects Bonner has sculpted. Lead balls. Glass balls. Water balloons. Spherical objects that are burrs that have to be inserted with a special tube.Front Pockets catalogues the exhibition of Providence based sculptor Jonathan Bonner that was held at the Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design from November 9, 2001-January 27, 2002. The catalogue/artist's book contains 20 pages of duotone images of objects, sculpted by Bonner, to be carried in the front pockets of trousers.
Then on the right side are photos of a model, photographed only from about knee to chest, with the object in his trousers pockets.
That's it.
I found a used copy on amazon.com for $1.50 and snapped it up. Now when my friends pick up the book at my house and admire it, I'll be able to say, "Hey, listen," and then I'll lower my voice to a conspiratory whisper, "I got this for a buck fifty."
