Alex Pardee: Brightmares & Deadlines, Gebunden

Klappentext

This collection is a WonderTwins of sorts, a 2-for-one featuring two distinct series of paintings by Alex Pardee. First are the "BRIGHTMARE" paintings in full color (along with some short stories), followed by a collection of the artists "DEAD-LINE" black and white drawings. Inspired by the idea of taking random mix tapes, hand-made zines, and happy children's books, dumping them in a blender, pureeing them on high, and then pouring them over the depths of Pardee's darkest nightmares. The tome is packed with over a hundred illustrations, most of which have not been published in previous books. Also contained between the pages are ten short stories and monologues that have accompanied select characters and paintings over the years. To quote the artist "I always loved adding an element of storytelling to my work, and with this book, I can finally showcase that additional layer to my world of weird-looking brightmares and downtrodden outcasts."

The first half of the book is in full color, then flip it over, and you have an entirely different book, all in black and white. 2 books in one!
