Playfully irreverent photos reveal the strangest laws from each of the 50 states.

Strange, outdated laws from each of the 50 U.S. states-some overturned, some still on the books, and some merely the stuff of legends-are depicted with sly wit by Olivia Locher. Incisive, ironic, and gorgeous, these images will appeal to art buffs and trivia fans alike. A foreword from American poet Kenneth Goldsmith and an interview with the artist by Eric Shiner, former director of the Andy Warhol Museum, contextualize rising-star Locher's photography. From serving wine in teacups in Kansas to licking a toad in Kentucky or perming a child's hair in Nebraska, breaking the law has never looked so good.

Olivia Locher is a photographer based in Manhattan. She is known for her sarcastic approach to studio photography with a heavy focus on colour and concept. She has exhibited her work throughout the United States and internationally in Italy and the United Kingdom. Her photos have appeared in Neon, Glamour, Vanity Fair Italia, the New York Times Magazine, W Magazine, Bloomberg Businessweek, and more. She was a 2013 nominee for PDN's 30 Under 30.
