Acerca del libro
Working in the confines of a sparse secure hospital in Russia, Alex Xatkevich has produced an imaginative world of abundance and desire. His drawings are deceptively simple, childlike even. They describe a wealth of meaningful objects dredged from memory, which are at once tokens of luxury and pure physical indulgence. There are narratives of love, control and the transformative power of hermetic number symbolism to be found here. And every work he makes is an offering to the idealised figure of woman. This richly illustrated book is the first comprehensive analysis of the work of an exciting new outsider art discovery.
