Overview

"David Byrne, inspired multi-media artist, brings to photography the same consummate eye for human idiosyncrasy that finds expression in his renowned music. Here in vivid color imagery and compelling words are many of the bizarre incongruities he has encountered during his travels around the world - a Mexican Aztec Hari Krishna, plastic Jesus babies for sale in a shop window, a tome revealing "The Truth About Mars." Chronicling Byrne's uncanny ability to see the unusual - even the sublime - among the mundane, these striking photographs and essays make Strange Ritual an extraordinary document of contemporary culture in our diverse world by one of its keenest observers."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
