Synopsis:

In the West we have all become familiar with the unique Japanese art forms Manga and Anime, but very little -if anything - of the equally original and flourishing field of modern Japanese Fashion Illustration. This beautifully designed book provides the perfect introduction to the unique work that is being currently produced. The illustrations produced by the 24 artists featured in mondofragile beautifully encapsulate the tension in Japanese culture between traditional Japanese forms and images and a fascination with European aesthetics from which, by a process of mutation and absorption, the astonishing fertility and vibrancy of modern Japanese design derives.
