Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This delightful, large-format monograph by contemporary artist Jason Jagel features over 200 images from Jagel's career, spanning childhood sketches and family snapshots, but largely focusing on his current practice, his sometimes-loose, sometimes-tight narrative paintings and works on paper. Hip-hop influences, family life, and the humming buzz of the street are often found in a single work. Jagel's work has been increasingly influenced by the music he listens to; this connection has been strengthened by his record cover designs for the LA-based hiphop label Stones Throw. One of Stones Throw's major artists, Madlib, has three tracks that appear on a companion 10-inch vinyl record, an unexpected feature included in this artists' book.
