Zusammenfassung:	"Art-Comic: Library is a collection of paintings by two of Canada's most influential contemporary artists, Michael Dumontier and Neil Farber. From the simple premise of the book title comes a series of laugh-out-loud funny images. A collection of book covers adorned with titles painted in simple handwritten fonts are displayed on brightly colored hardboard. Each book forms part of an ongoing series Dumontier and Faber started in 2009. In Dumontier and Farber's Library, titles like "I Lost the Human Race," "Change Your Relationship to Your Unchangeable Past," and "I Have a Medical Condition That Makes it So I Don't Have to Talk to You" offer surprising and astute observations, all in the duo's characteristic deadpan style. The simplicity of the shapes and text evokes an immediate but lasting profundity, with each piece causing one to wonder about the thoughts that roam their consciousness, and the books that take up residence on their--and our--shelves."--
