“I wrote the book then because I would never have written the same book now. I didn’t see it as an autobiography, I saw it as on-the-job training notes for any young artist.” — Julian Schnabel (2015) 

Julian Schnabel: CVJ is a facsimile edition of Schnabel’s classic 1987 autobiographical artist’s book, first published by Random House and now out-of-print. Featuring extensive artwork images and text written by the artist at the age of thirty-six, this book also includes an afterword by Petra Giloy-Hirtz.

Julian Schnabel: CVJ, Nicknames of Maitre D’s & Other Excerpts from Life

Julian Schnabel

Julian Schnabel is known for his multidisciplinary practice that extends beyond painting to include sculpture and film. His use of preexisting materials not traditionally used in art making, varied painting surfaces and modes of construction were pivotal in the reemergence of painting in the United States.
