MY LIFE WITH DICK - JEFFREY VALLANCE 'A sidesplitting chronicle of the inescapable influence of America's 37th President, Richard M.
Nixon, on one of the art world's liveliest mavericks, Jeffrey Vallance.' Growing up in California
in the 1960's, Vallance became, seemingly inevitably, mildy obsessed by Richard Nixon. In 1990
after his offer to donate some of his artwork to the official Richard Nixon Library was
declined, Vallance created his own
Richard Nixon Museum exhibition. This pocket-sized book contains a mixture of Nixonian ephemera, artwork
and
anecdotes in Jeffrey Vallance's unique
style - blurring history and mythology
Paperback, USA, 2005, 18 x 13cm, 32 pgs.
