Wes Lang portrays a fictional history of America; he juxtaposes symbols of Americana and the Wild West against contemporary pop culture and kitschy iconography. War, prejudice, hatred and hypocrisy are countered with hope, idealism and a strong belief in, and fascination for, his country.Lang's first monograph focuses on his works on paper, the complicated arrangements of Americana vocabulary, expertly rendered in ink and paint. These works are carefully selected form a decade's worth of material and mix the verve of rock music with the drawings of a 19th century illustrator.

Review:
'Gives the reader a huge amount of images that allow you to stare at the paper works and the immense detail inside the hand drawn depictions of American history, biker culture, tattoo iconography, ornament and Native American art... will undoubtedly appeal to both Lang's substantial online following and to fans of Americana.' --UK Street Art
