Specialist note

"Sometimes I think you could look at my work and learn a great deal about American society...it's telling a story the way it's supposed to be told. Saying something visually, instead of having a paragraph or two describing exactly what's happening...and anyway, the single drawings are narrative and they're about stories. They're just more compressed." (Raymond Pettibon, quoted in Raymond Pettibon, R. Storr, D. Cooper & U. Loock (eds), 2001, p. 27 & p.20).
