Amano
: The Complete Prints of Yoshitaka Amano
by Yoshitaka Amano
Book Description: Japanese artist Yoshitaka Amano began his
career with exceptional design work on fan-favorite anime such as Gatchaman/G-Force
and Time Bokan and popular graphic novels Sandman: The Dream Hunters and
Wolverine & Elektra: The Redeemer, but it wasn't until he turned his
attention to the medium of printmaking that his artistic genius began to
flower. Drawing from influences as diverse as Art Nouveau and Art
Deco traditions, American comics, Japanese ukiyo-e, and traditional fantasy
illustration, Amano's prints capture a breathtaking world -- sometimes
whimsical, sometimes luxurious, and sometimes terrifying.
Amano: The Complete Prints showcases hundreds of these captivating
works, comprising an impressive, comprehensive look at one of the art world's
visionary talents. Art scholar and critic Unno Hiroshi contributes
an insightful message on Amano, the genesis of this style, and his
place in the panoply of art history. Also included is a brief timeline
noting the high points of the artist's career.
