(This is a rare and limited edition exhibition catalog of ...)
This is a rare and limited edition exhibition catalog of "Queer Mysteries", by the late David Cannon Dashiell. It includes a fold out of the full scroll study for the "Queer Mysteries" mural, which is in the collection of the Whitney Museum. The mural itself which was exhibited in the round, is in the collection of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. "Queer Mysteries" is an adaptation by the artist of the Dionysian murals at the Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii, to a biting satire of the AIDS epidemic. The narrative of the neophyte entering rights of passage is doubled, with a gay version and a lesbian version. They begin at opposite ends and overlap. In the book, Nayland Blake is the author of the Sci-Fi Lesbian parody, and Rebecca Solnit took on the Edwardian/Freudian Gay parody. The catalog is an installation of book, fold out, art piece, and broadsides and forward all encased in a plain brown box with the edition number hand written by the artist on the front. It is stamped by the artist, with his name in the font of Walt Disney, a take off on the fact that he got his MFA from Cal Arts, the school of art Disney founded.

The California Gold Rush captured the get-rich dreams of people around the world more completely than almost any event in American history. This catalog, published in celebration of the sesquicentennial of the 1848 discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill, shows the vitality of the arts in the Golden State during the latter nineteenth century and documents the dramatic impact of the Gold Rush on the American imagination. Among the throngs of gold-seekers in California were artists, many self-taught, others formally trained, and their arrival produced an outpouring of artistic works that provide insights into Gold Rush events, personages, and attitudes. The best-known painting of the Gold Rush era, C.C. Nahl's Sunday Morning in the Mines (1872), was created nearly two decades after gold fever had subsided. By then the Gold Rush's mythic qualities were well established, and new allegories—particularly the American belief in the rewards of hard work and enterprise—can be seen on Nahl's canvas. Other works added to the image of California as a destination for ambitious dreamers, an image that prevails to this day. In bringing together a range of art and archival material such as artists' diaries and contemporary newspaper articles, The Art of the Gold Rush broadens our understanding of American culture during a memorable period in the nation's history.
