Synopsis

Challenging, controversial, educational, and irreverent, the fifteenth anniversary addition to the award-winning "Spectrum" series reinforces both the importance and prevalence of fantastic art in today's culture. With exceptional images by extraordinary creators, this elegant full-colour collection showcases an international cadre of creators working in every style and medium, both traditional and digital. The best artists from the United States, Europe, China, Australia, South America and beyond have gathered into the only annual devoted exclusively to works of fantasy, horror, science fiction, and the surreal, making Spectrum one of the year's highly most anticipated books. Featured in "Spectrum 16" are such diverse and world-renowned visionaries as James Jean ("Fables"), Brom ("The Plucker"), Iain McCaig ("Star Wars"), William Joyce ("A Day With Wilbur Robinson"), Peter de Seve ("Ice Age"), Anita Kunz ("Rolling Stone"), and 300 more. With art from books, graphic novels, video games, films, galleries, and advertising, Spectrum is both an electrifying art book for fans and an invaluable resource for clients looking for bright new talent. The entire field is discussed in an invaluable, found-nowhere-else Year In Review.
