David Choe Book Signing Tomorrow

Tomorrow at 6:30, David Choe will be at SFMOMA's Haus Atrium signing copies of his awesome street art coffee table book*:

This dynamic monograph captures the frenetic raw energy and gorgeous, intense work of gallery and street artist David Choe. From dropping out of art school to a stint in Japanese prison to representation by the Lazarides Gallery alongside Banksy, Choe's wild ride through the art world is represented by a major selection of images, and narrated throughout by Choe himself. Graffiti, murals, paintings, sketchbook pages, photographs, toys, t-shirts, collages, artwork created with blood, and more fill the kinetic pages — all annotated by the artist in a voice that matches the funny, frantic, daredevil nature of the work itself. Join us and meet as David Choe signs copies of his new book. (link)

The book's highlights include an entire page of iPhone sexts, a Korean bodega owner with a pitbull and a TEC-9, and matzo getting wasted off of Manischewitz.  You can buy the book for $45 tomorrow at SFMOMA or get it on Amazon $30.

* I know "coffee table book" can be insulting, but it's a hardcover book of street art, tits, iPhone text messages and blood.  What the fuck did you expect?
