Stefan Marx is a Hamburg-based artist who draws on a variety of items, including skateboards, T-shirts, and record sleeves. This book is a collection of sketches that record the scenery the author saw during his stay in New York in 2012. The lines of his pen drawings, which he sometimes wrote down while riding the subway or waiting for a traffic light, have the momentum and speed of a snapshot taken impulsively, vividly conveying the strange atmosphere of the city as seen from his own unique perspective. The title is thought to be a quote from the song "Take Care" by YO LA TENGO (originally Big Star), and a passage of the lyrics is on the back cover, and the band's name is also listed in the Thanks column of the colophon.
