Travis Jeppesen - Bad Writing
2019
English edition
Sternberg Press - History, Criticism and Theory
Travis Jeppesen's Bad Writing is a collection of interconnected essays and “fictocriticisms,” many appearing in print for the first time, that etches a pathway for a truly radical “bad” modernism in art and literature. Erudite, witty, and occasionally controversial, Bad Writing reinvigorates the too-often staid medium of art criticism as an iconoclastic and inventive literary art form.
