Powers not only had a knack for painting, but he also had a way with words. Boy, did he have a WAY with words! I recently received a copy of his Menschifesto: The Laz/Org Gestalt written in 1970. Powers has a lot of fun poking fun at the art world (specifically Warhol and his FACTORY which he loathed) as well as himself.
Also contained are some abstracts from his time in Jamaica (where this manifesto was printed). I love Miss Red Stripe!
