Bøger i Illustration now serien

This title deals with the art of likeness. It focuses on the spectrum of today's portraiture, from caricature to realism. The field of illustration has flourished over the last decade, with professionals working both by computer and by hand. In illustration, the single most challenging and captivating subject has been the portrait, frequently used in editorials, advertising, products, and most recently, being the subject of major exhibitions. The book gathers together the exclusive (and frequently unpublished) portrait work of over 80 illustrators from all over the world, many of whom were featured in "Illustration Now!", including Aaron Jasinski, Alex Gross, Andre Carrilho, Andrea Wicklund, and Anita Kunz.

This title is a Taschen 25 - Special edition! This is a drawing delight. Following the success of "Illustration Now!", this installment presents a completely new selection of illustrators from all around the world. Whereas the first volume brought together a fascinating mix of star illustrators and brand new faces that together formed the face of illustration around the world, "Illustration Now! 2" is even more exciting, featuring illustrators from 25 countries, with styles ranging from cutting edge to traditional. Also included is a dialog between design specialist Steven Heller and German illustrator Christoph Niemann about illustration's role in the world today. This book is perfect not only for creative professionals and illustration students, but also artists and anyone with an appreciation for visual language.
