In case you didn’t figure it out, Erik Benjamins knows how to eat, and eat well. He also happens to be a wonderful writer, and brings that talent to a wide range of experiential pieces.  While his work finds its way to far flung corners of the world by way of the Artists’ Book Cooperative, Erik has decided to settle down in the LA area after a 3 year stint in Boston. I don’t know if he’s a Bad Brains fan, but he sure has that PMA.
