 *** After nearly 3 years in progress, I'm proud to return home and find my contributor copy of a thoughtful new book that I'm part of (published by UK academic publisher, Intellect Books: https://www.intellectbooks.com/ ) ✨ **Masks: Bowie & Artists of Artifice**✨ I am one of around a dozen interesting artists and thinkers featured in this anthology, including the likes of distinguished Slovenian philosopher, Slavoj Žižek & Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Gary Valentine, founding member of the New Wave band, Blondie! ***  *** My contribution takes the form of a nearly 30 page meditation on the uses of 'masks' in the lives and works of those 2 great contrarians: Nietzsche & Oscar Wilde. ***  ***  *** I think it should be a fun read (in a serious kind of way) for all lovers of David Bowie, But you don’t need to be a fan of Bowie (which I am ) to enjoy this -- it should appeal to anyone interested in cultural criticism, aesthetics, identity and the art of self-presentation! *There is more truth in the mask we wear, in the game we play, the fiction we obey and follow, than in what is concealed beneath the mask.* — Slavoj Žižek (Available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/MASKS-Artists-Artifice-James-Curcio/dp/1789381088/)
