G.B. Jones (book)
G.B. Jones, edited by Steve LaFreniere, is a book of drawings and artwork by G.B. Jones, published by a gallery in New York in 1996 with commentaries by Dennis Cooper, Kevin Killian, Dodie Bellamy, Vaginal Davis, Jena von Brucker and several others. The book also features still frames from her films The Troublemakers, The Yo-Yo Gang and The Lollipop Generation, the record covers of Fifth Column, the band G.B. is a member of, and work from publications she was co-editor of, such as Double Bill and J.D.s, the zine that first brought her drawings to public attention. A well-known aspect of her early drawings is the appropriation and re-interpretation of the homoerotic art of Tom of Finland. These are known as the Tom Girl drawings. Although widely available in the U.S and Europe, copies of the book were seized at the Canadian border and it was officially pronounced "Banned In Canada".
