| Description: | Select Guide Rating The first comprehensive book on the art and life of Norma Tenega. *Since gaining worldwide recognition in the 1960s with her album and single ‘Walkin’ My Cat Named Dog’, Tanega’s music has recently reached a new audience as her song ‘You’re Dead’ featured as the theme music for the TV series 'What We Do in the Shadows.’ In addition to her accomplishments as a gifted musician and songwriter, Norma Tanega was a noted gallerist, teacher, and a central figure in the vibrant and homegrown creative scene of Claremont, California. She was also a visual artist of astonishing originality. In Try to Tell a Fish About Water, the bold colors and gestural immediacy of Tanega’s paintings are presented for the first time alongside unseen photos, illustrations, journal entries, and other ephemera. Featuring reflections and remembrances from Norma’s friends and collaborators collaged alongside the visual roadmap, Try to Tell a Fish About Water is a thoughtful exploration of Tanega’s art career and a testament to a life spent immersed in creativity. |
