• Brian Paulsen: North Dakota Museum of Art, 2009, 96 pages, 61 full-page color and 6 black and white reproductions, hard cover, 9.25 x 6.75 inches. Text includes an essay by editor Laurel Reuter and a lengthy series of “musings” by the artist who says, “My memory is not too good for what is useful or necessary. Mostly, I remember in a collage fashion, memory of bits and pieces; the way I do art work today.” Through musing, he traces his life from childhood in an immigrant neighborhood in Seattle, studies at the University of Washington and Washington State in Pullman, teaching positions at California’s Chico State University, the University of Calgary in Canada, and finally the University of North Dakota where he spent his last twenty-five years. The artist vaguely draws his imagery from his early memory bank amassed in childhood. The art, however, is as much about art and the making of art as it is about actual life experiences.
