Collection: Art by and About Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski made art. Others made art about him. This collection covers both.

On one side are the works Bukowski made himself — drawings that appeared in magazines and newspapers, paintings bound into limited edition books, and prints that Black Sparrow Press produced. On the other side are the artists who depicted him and illustrated his work — most notably Robert Crumb and Spain Rodriguez, two of the most important figures in Underground Comix.

Drawings, Paintings and Prints by Charles Bukowski — His own hand.
