Mistaken for art or rubbish

31 Replies

“Mistaken for art or rubbish” is the first volume of poems in the Has Doubts series, written by Alexander Velky and published by Doubtist Books in 2013.

book cover (clean)Its theme is art:

1) What is art?
2) What’s it for?
3) What’s it worth?

The volume uses allegory, autobiography, biography, history and polemic to get to the heart of art. And to break it and rebuild it: bigger, better, stronger.

The collection is currently available as a paperback publication in a limited run of 200 books (with about half remaining). For information on how to order a copy, please click BUY.
