When an artist dies young there begins the task of editing his oeuvre in order to present as clear and fine a point of view as he might have hoped for in his short career. Several remarkable men have participated in editing Larry Stanton's work for this volume, among them Henry Geldzahler, David Hockney, and Nicholas Wilder. Larry Stanton's best drawings and paintings are presented here, a tribute by his friends in recognition of his talent and our loss.
