THE CITY WITH NO SHAME
Viscosity linocuts by Katie Gilmartin
The titles, images, and blurbs in the prints I’ve created are a pastiche. I borrow from existing pulps, add some local color and an occasional autobiographical detail, and mix it all up with my own imagination. I find it a delightful challenge to see how many words like “twisted,” “vortex,” “perversion,” and “twilight,” can be crammed into a single sentence! I gathered a small collection of pulps back when you could pick them up for a few bucks. I’ve read quite a few, and for the most part judging these books by their covers would be overly charitable. Nonetheless, the covers express eloquently the social tensions and cultural preoccupations of the era. I find myself drawn to reclaiming pulp art’s busty babes; sex may have been their only source of power, but what delicious domination it was! – Katie Gilmartin
