El catálogo de la exposición se completa con ensayos de Charo Crego, Félix Romeo, Yago Barja y Amalia Iglesias, que se asoman a la obra de Mackaoui en un intento de prolongar su poder de invención, sus planteamientos imaginativos. Acompaña al catálogo un DVD con el documental Crónicas del cortapega, rodado en los meses que precedieron a la exposición, gracias al cual nos convertimos en testigos privilegiados del proceso de elaboración de algunas de estas creaciones. Además, el propio Mackaoui interviene en la filmación con varias animaciones y collages. Su modo de trabajo, a caballo entre la sutileza y el caos, reverbera en sus obras, siempre llenas de ironía, inteligencia y sentido del humor.

Resulta sumamente original la idea de comentar esta espléndida y nutrida selección de imágenes de portadas de antiguos discos a 45 r.p.m. en los que multitud de chicas nos dedican su impronta vinílica a lo largo de más de tres décadas. Los capítulos que lo componen nos aproximan —a veces desde la impresión de que el autor ni siquiera se lo propone— a un mejor entendimiento de esos años, mostrándonos su particular visión del mundo con reflexiones unas veces formales —las menos—, junto a otras del todo jocosas —las más­—. Y es que el fino humor del autor planea por todo el texto, dejándonos algunos soberbios momentos de genuino disparate marxista (de los Hermanos Marx). Se trata, en definitiva, de aprovechar la maravillosa iconografía que nos desvelan aquellas entrañables carátulas musicales para, de una manera alternativa pero siempre divertida, entender, de paso, la idiosincrasia masculina al referirnos a ellas —las chicas— en cualquier situación.

Since 1994, Juxtapoz magazine, published in San Francisco, has provided a forum for so called Lo-Brow artwork inspired by Comics, hot rods, and popular culture --and has become, in the years since, the most widely read art magazine in the United States. Juxtapoz provides a voice and validation for a brand of artist, like founder Robert Williams, Mark Ryden, Coop, Camille Rose Garcia, Glen Barr, the Clayton Brothers, Isabel Samaras, Joe Coleman, and many, many others, who have not historically been accepted by the typical art-world infrastructure of collector, curator, and critic. However, since its founding, it has become the leverage point for the creation of its own infrastructure that supports Juxtapozian art with galleries around the world, collectors, increasing critical attention, and museum exhibitions at adventurous institutions. This exciting and provocative collection presents a group of artists who rejected traditional rules of the art establishment and created their own canon, known as the Juxtapoz School. Published in conjunction with the Laguna Art Museum for the 2008 exhibition In the Land of Retinal Delights.
