Cathy combines familiar, iconic imagery with a unique, ironic twist not merely to literally depict but to stimulate, provoke, and succinctly convey an idea or opinion with wordless, captionless visual commentary. René Magritte's The Treachery of Images best illustrates that art is the willing suspension of disbelief; a paradox of the conventional notion that objects must correspond to words and images. The surreal world of Donald Trump exemplifies the human dilemma: life between illusion, delusion, and reality. Trump's winning unscripted, chaotic leadership style is unrestricted by tradition, norms, reason, or societal limitations. Freudian dreams have become a political nightmare awakening an artistic Renaissance. A picture, or this book, may not change the world; but perhaps one vote? Comic relief in trying times. Cathy Hull is featured in All the Art That's Fit to Print (And Some That Wasn't): Inside The New York Times Op-Ed Page, Watergate Without Words (A Rolling Stone Special Project), and Sourcebook of Visual Ideas.","brand":"Tocqueville Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50859725553938,"sku":"9780578657974","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_06460e1f-fb2c-47de-ad31-c5eb3842d078.jpg?v=1737562751","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/art-101-of-the-deal-donald-j-trump-off-the-wall-9780578657974","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
