In einer Zeit politischer und gesellschaftlicher Umbrüche entstand in San Francisco eine außergewöhnliche Kunstszene: Initiiert von einem großartigen Museumsdirektor, einem aufgeklärten Mäzen und einer hervorragenden Kunstschule wurde ein Umfeld geschaffen, das eine Vielzahl krativer und innovativer Künstler*innen hervorbrachte. Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts siedelte sich in der Bay Area eine erstaunliche Anzahl von Künstler*innen an, darunter Clyfford Still, Claire Falkenstein, Jay DeFeo, Richard Diebenkorn und Ruth Asawa. Sie arbeiteten weit entfernt von den bis dahin gängigen Hauptzentren der Kunstwelt in Europa und New York. Abseits und wenig beeinflusst von diesen entwickelten sie Stile jenseits des Abstrakten Expressionismus, die erst heute in vollem Umfang Anerkennung finden. Mit großformatigen Kunstreproduktionen und viel historischem Material zeigt der Band wie San Francisco zum neuen Anziehungspunkt für Kunstschaffende wurde.

Two critical moments occur in the life of a disciple, moments that hearken us to Christ and faithfulness to His commands. The two I speak of are these: the call to follow Jesus and the call to go into all the world. These two critical moments occur in the Gospel of Matthew at the beginning of the Lord's ministry with His disciples and at the end of His time with them on earth. And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." Matthew 4:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28:19-20 Like bookends, these two commands of our Lord Jesus bracket in the believer's life and are the quintessential expression of the Christian faith: to follow Jesus and obey His call. A life that is called to follow Christ is ever to be a life that is also sent out by Christ. And a life cannot ever be sent out by Christ who is not also a life that follows Christ.

"This volume brings to light collages, collage books, word poems, and altered comic strips that have been largely inaccessible or unavailable since their making. Originally published in small editions and hard-to-find journals, or made as singular artist's books, these works demonstrate the full range of Jess's extraordinary verbal and visual play."--Jacket flap.
