The Story of John Alexander Scott Coutts
There is a book I very much like to bring to your attention. For four years Richard Perez worked on this book, and now it is for sale.
This illustrated biography of John Alexander Scott Coutts—known worldwide as “John Willie”—captures the life of one of the most impactful underground artists of the 20th century. Over four years in the making, this meticulously researched, 497-page volume reveals never-before-seen photographs of Coutts, his wife and muse Holly Anna Faram, and Charles Guyette, the trailblazer of American fetish art.
Richard Perez, author of the book
Most of this information has already been published in several beautifully done books by Bellier Press in New York. There is also a new film coming out on the life of John Willie in France.
Thank you for mentioning the film coming out. I think it is not a bad thing that more beautiful books are being published. I can’t tell if this book holds new information that the Belier Press books don’t have, I only know that Richard Perez creates beautiful books (as well).
