The Illustrator. The Best from around the WorldJulius WiedemannLabel: Taschen GmbHDescription: For the last couple of years Steven Heller and Julius Wiedemann have traced the latest developments in illustration around the globe—and for all those who thought digital heralded the end of an era they’re here to set the record straight.There were extraordinary eras before mass media changed our viewing habits back in the day when illustration was the primary means of illuminating the word on paper—all the way to today when we get our words and images on screens as small as a watch face. In this environment today’s designers and artists are holding their own brilliantly. Illustration is more free and varied than ever and it is ubiquitous in all kinds of media from paper to screen to books packages clothing cars and restaurants.This book celebrates the sheer quality diversity intensity comedy vivacity and exceptionality of the work being created by illustrators right now. The artists in this collection are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg but they represent a compelling snapshot of the styles techniques and use of color by artists around the world. We dare you to pick your favorites.
The "Julius Wiedemann The Illustrator. The Best from around the World (Hardback)" is a fantastic choice for art enthusiasts and collectors looking to add a diverse and comprehensive collection of international illustrators to their shelves.
