Edit. Taschen GmbH, 2019 Köln. Idiomas: Inglés, español, italiano. Folio menor (32x22x5,5 cm) 664 págs. Cartoné con sobrecubierta ilustrada. Buen estado general. Sobrecubierta deslucida algo rasgada en plano posterior. "Durante los últimos diez años, Steven Heller y Julius Wiedemann han investigado la evolución de la ilustración en todo el mundo, y ahora están aquí para cambiar la opinión de quienes pensaron que lo digital anunciaba el final de una era. Antes de que los medios de comunicación de masas transformaran nuestros hábitos de visualización, y de que pudiéramos disfrutar de textos e imágenes en pantallas tan pequeñas como la esfera de un reloj, las ilustraciones eran las acompañantes principales de la palabra impresa. En el contexto actual, diseñadores y artistas siguen siendo protagonistas. La ilustración es más libre y variada que nunca, y está presente en medios impresos y digitales, libros, envoltorios, ropa, automóviles y restaurantes. Este libro rinde homenaje a la calidad, diversidad, intensidad, comicidad, vivacidad y excepcionalidad del trabajo de los ilustradores de hoy. Desde artistas veteranos como Brad Holland, cuyas pinturas alusivas y metafóricas en la sección de opinión del New York Times revolucionaron la ilustración en la década de 1970, hasta estrellas emergentes como Robin Eisenberg, con sus bellezas alienígenas de colores pastel a bordo de naves espaciales en portadas de discos de indie-rock, los 100 artistas de esta colección son solo, como suele decirse, la punta del iceberg, pero componen un recorrido apasionante por los estilos, las técnicas y el uso del color de creadores de todo el mundo. Le animamos a elegir sus favoritos.".…

For the last ten years, Steven Heller and Julius Wiedemann have traced the latest developments in illustration across 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 most primary means of illuminating the word on paper, to today when we get our words and images on screens as small as a watch face. And 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, 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. From veteran artists like Brad Holland, whose oblique and metaphorical paintings for the New York Times’ op-ed section revolutionized illustrative content in the 1970s, to up-and-coming stars like Robin Eisenberg, her pastel-skinned alien belles cruising in spaceships on indie-rock album covers, the 100 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 across the world. We dare you to pick your favorites.
Includes:
an introduction and foreword by editors Julius Wiedemann and Steven Heller
600 pages of brilliantly reproduced works
a biography for each artist detailing their background, philosophy, motivations, and contact details
an index of illustration agencies

Nuestro espacio es como una casa grande, llena de puertas y ventanas por las que entrar y salir, en la que, de momento, ocuparemos sólo unos cuartos, bien aireados, pero que, cuando la familia crezca, iremos abriendo, de par en par, para que la luz entre desde todos los ángulos y esté siempre bien ventilada. Te invitamos a cruzar el umbral y ver si algo en la casa es de tu gusto. Entra, pregunta, sumérgete y opina¿ Orgánicamente, todo se desarrolla en torno al libro, al papel, que dota de corporalidad a la palabra, de tercera dimensión al proyecto virtual.

Segundas oportunidades para la palabra escrita, para la imagen, para la obra, para la expresión, pues todo ello parte del alma y la razón del hombre, en continua búsqueda. Las personas que caminamos detrás de este proyecto no queremos que sea únicamente un canal de ida, sino también de vuelta. Estamos aquí para intentar solucionar cualquier duda o petición que se plantee, para dar y recibir recomendaciones, iniciar búsquedas en común y el enriquecimiento mutuo. Sin miedo a bucear.
