A.Bandit: A Secret Has Two Faces Hardcover – January 2, 2018


This multifaceted book is the latest collaboration between Glenn Kaino and Derek DelGaudio, who work together as the conceptual performance art duo A.Bandit to make magical art. A.Bandit is an experimental performance art group started by conceptual artist Glenn Kaino and magician Derek DelGaudio. Together they have exhibited and performed their work in venues that span a diverse range of cultural activities. The book introduces their pioneering work in the fields of art and magic, along with interviews and stories from noteworthy practitioners from both fields. It will be a generous access point into the normally secret practice from which A.Bandit operates. The book itself will contain several secret elements and magical features that will distinguish it as a type of performance in and of itself.

This is a really great coffee table book! You get to peek inside the mind of the 2 authors Glenn and Derek to "sort of" see how they tick. It is magic, it is art, it is performance and so much more! Grab a copy!

These copies of A.Bandit are not authorized for resale and aren't even the finalized version of the book.

UPDATE: I have been informed that Amazon now carries authorized copies of the book and the book is fantastic. It's a very well produced look at the accomplishments and artistry of an amazing team.
Very inspiring for fans of magic, conceptual art and the Wu Tang Clan.
