"This book explores continent by continent the colossal, monochrome murals that have earned ROA wprldwide recognition. Like the contemporary animalier, ROA despicts characteristic animals either as dynamic compositions or as still lifes of several motionless animals stacked on top of each other with humans seemingly looking on alienated. ROA paints a haunting picture of the fate befalling many animals...With more than 300 images and text contributions by, among others, American art critic Lucy Lippard and artist Robert Williams, ROA - CODEX offers a unique reflection on the past ten years of the nomadic artist."--Back cover..
