Nursery crimes

During the glorious GPK days in the 80ies,Topps created all the time other Projects.Some were produced and some not, like this cute Nursery Crimes booklet. I think there were some distribution problems.

The writers were Art Spiegelman and Mark Newgarden.It was supposed to become a whole Moldy Books series.Too bad it didn't happen.

Below are some of my METAPHYSICAL QUANTOONS.
They were Illustrations for an american/russian science magazine called QUANTUM, in the 90ies. I have made alltogether about 55  of them, and had a show in the NY Hall of Science in 2005. There is going to be now in April 2010 an exhibition in Frankfurt in Germany. Check out the gallery's website

And there is also a wonderful BOOK, that can be purchased on Amazon or from the publisher directly.Check it out on Google.
