Jerry Garcia: The Collected Artwork is a profusely illustrated showcase of and appreciation for Jerry Garcia's art, life, and creative spirit. The book opens with a foreword by Grateful Dead percussionist Mickey Hart, and features more than 100 full-color reproductions of Jerry's paintings, drawings, and prints. This historic presentation of his distinguished body of work, from pen-and-ink drawings to acrylics, watercolors, and digital media, is at once a stunning art book and an intimate and playful celebration of his creativity.

Edited by April Higashi, art curator and archivist of the Jerry Garcia Estate, each chapter opens with a commentary on the art presented in the context of Jerry's life and times. Punctuating these essays are interludes illustrated by candid photographs, featuring interviews, anecdotes, and remembrances by key cultural figures as well as those closest to Jerry, including Bob Dylan, Patti Smith, Herbert Gold, Baron Wolman, jon Carroll, Paul Pena, Victor Moscoso, Carlos Santana, Grace Slick, and members of the Garcia and Grateful Dead families.

Jerry Garcia The Collected Artwork

Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2014

If you LOVE Jerry Garcia, what is not to love about this book? It is large format and has what it states. I have been lucky enough to acquire some of Jerry's designed Art Ties, which I hang on my livingroom, amongst other bizzarities. My Sis went to California, with 5 other Nurses. They hired a boat to snorkel, for the day. There was one other guest onboard. Jerry! AMAZING luck! She BARELY mentioned it in passing, and I started jumping around the room! WHAT would some PAY, to spend a day having fun with Jerry, exclusively, like that? Apparently, he would go on that boat, on a fairly regular basis? He died a year later. When I grow my hair long, people approach me to say I look like him.

An other side of Garcia, which I enjoyed very much. The book is beautifully made, and makes me open it whenever I have a little time to get touch with my self. I wish that some more back ground stories for each art work was in. It is one of those books that you want to have in your hands.

Fun Book

We have always enjoyed the diversity of his musical skills. My husband has a stable full of his ties. Now we are enjoying the variety of sketches & paintings he has done. Some are "out there", of course. Some are movingly intuitive. We are really enjoying the book. And it is very nice quality.
