The definitive biography of Chuck Berry, legendary performer and inventor of rock and roll. Best known as the groundbreaking artist behind classics like "Johnny B. Goode," "Maybellene," "You Never Can Tell" and "Roll Over Beethoven," Chuck Berry was a man of wild contradictions, whose motives and motivations were often shrouded in mystery. After all, how did a teenage delinquent come to write so many songs that transformed American culture? And, once he achieved fame and recognition, why did he put his career in danger with a lifetime's worth of reckless personal behaviour? Throughout his life, Berry refused to shed light on either the mastery or the missteps, leaving the complexity that encapsulated his life and underscored his music largely unexplored--until now. In Chuck Berry, biographer RJ Smith crafts a comprehensive portrait of one of the great American entertainers, guitarists, and lyricists of the 20th century, bringing Chuck Berry to life in vivid detail. Based on interviews, archival research, legal documents, and a deep understanding of Berry's St. Louis (his birthplace, and the place where he died in March 2017), Smith sheds new light on a man few have ever really understood. By placing his life within the context of the American culture he made and eventually withdrew from, we understand how Berry became such a groundbreaking figure in music, erasing racial boundaries, crafting subtle political commentary, and paying a great price for his success. While celebrating his accomplishments, the book also does not shy away from troubling aspects of his public and private life, asking profound questions about how and why we separate the art from the artist. Berry declined to call himself an artist, shrugging that he was good at what he did. But the man's achievement was the rarest kind, the kind that had social and political resonance, the kind that made America want to get up and dance. At long last, Chuck Berry brings the man and the music together.
"A world-class soul singer." -- Bonedog RecordsChuck Corby (aka Chuck Ciorra) has been performing for nearly sixty years and has recorded his songs on most of the major R&B labels. He is a Pittsburgh treasure, but his recordings have reached audiences across the country and internationally as well. His sound is R&B, and you would swear you are listening to a black artist when you hear him sing. When he first recorded "Man Loves Two" in 1966, he was promoted as such in order to get play from the black R&B radio stations. When Chess Records heard "Man Loves Two," they arranged for Little Milton to sing his version of the song. To this day, Chuck receives royalty checks on this record, but no others. A common practice of managers back in the early recording days was to put a fictitious name as head writer so they could receive unearned royalties. Chuck's manager was no exception. Chuck tells the story of an exceptional career countered by a personal life of joy, turmoil, and heartbreak. He does not hold back about his years of alcohol abuse, anger issues, failed marriages, or clinical depression. His love of family and friends is evident throughout the pages, and you feel his loss when he shares the deaths of those closest to him. His family is his heart, but his music, more than anything else, is his soul.
The final works of the photorealist pioneer, made with a palette of only three colors Since the 1970s, Chuck Close (1940–2021) has been known for his innovative approach to conceptual portraiture, systematically transposing his subjects’ likenesses from photographs into gridded paintings. Published on the occasion of Pace Gallery’s first exhibition of the artist’s work since his death in 2021, Red, Yellow, and Blue spotlights Close’s final body of paintings, which employ a palette of only three colors. Layering transparent glazes of red, yellow and blue paint, Close created an effect of abstract likeness entirely different from that of his previous work. Alongside studio photography and images of Close’s mosaic works, this volume features a previously unpublished 2018 interview between Close and Cindy Sherman—originally commissioned by the Brooklyn Rail—as well as a new critical essay by Carter Ratcliff, which considers Close’s final works in depth. An additional essay by Barbara Knappmeyer examines the artist’s portraits in the context of facial recognition technology.

I think you would have had to know these brothers and maybe even be with them some time in order to write this story. To understand some of the feelings they had, you would have had to really know their character. The deep feelings they had made them end up where they did. Some of this story is written from true events, and other parts are things that I think could have happened. If one little thing had not happened in the life of these two brothers, maybe their life would have turned out differently. Its sad, really, the things that could have been. I know that we will never know now what could have been then if things would have happened slightly different for two young men and their beloved fishing hole.

Chuck Close immediately liked the idea of a book without words. As a child, his severe dyslexia stood in the way of reading, making images all the more important. To this day, he remembers a visual encyclopedia from his early years and the feeling of being overtaken by the intensity of its pictures. The idea was also compatible with Close’s ongoing interest in revealing the process of his work, which he accomplishes largely through visual presentation, using very few words, if any. Scribble Book: Self Portrait is a self-portrait that emerges step-by-step out of the printing process, one plate and one color at a time. The viewer follows a series of 9 individual plate proofs along with a corresponding series of 9 progressive proofs. By comparing the plate proofs against the progressive proofs, the viewer may ascertain not only the effect as one color is added to another to create the final 9-color etching, but also the compositional decisions and careful modifications made by Close at each stage of the project.
