199621665Fullerton CA and Los Angeles: Fullerton College Art Gallery / The Artists' Floating Invisible Museum of Actual Art / Public Access Press of the Southern California Institute of Architecture 1996-2004. First editions of three all published of a projected series of four portfolios the series cut short by Eugenia Butler's untimely death of a brain hemorrhage in 2008. One of 80 numbered copies the entire edition produced numbered and signed in the artist's or poet's studio. At the time of the exhibition of The Book of Lies at the 18 Arts Gallery in Santa Monica in 2007 Eugenia Butler wrote: "Sixteen years after the Book of Lies project began the first three of its four volumes are finished. The entirety of the work has taken on form and content far beyond any original imaginings. It has become a rounded voice coming from many voices a discourse about truth in the territory of the unknowable. Its power derives from the strength and integrity of the individual pieces from the communal voice and in single intimate interactions. Each volume is a work of art unto itself that developed from the process of creating it from the individual works themselves and from the relationships between the parts and the whole. At a certain point a bigger vision broke through - something beyond previous understandings - surpassing the initial ideas to become a singular artwork consisting of discrete and powerful works of art. Its subject matter is truth lies and the intimate power of a true work of art." The works of art include pieces by artists and writers Georganne Deen Kim Jones Julia Lohmann John O'Brien Edgar Arceneaux Sally Elesby George Evans Joan Jonas Barry Sanders Arthur Sze Matthew Thomas Kim Abeles Lynn Aldrich Carolee Campbell Steve DeGroodt Janet Fitch Tom Marioni Kim McCarty Michael C.
