Alex Pardee: Doppelgangers, Gebunden

Blurb

Inspired by his undying love of horror films Alex Pardee has been painting portraits of his favorite monsters, mutants and maniacs for nearly 20 years. Doppelgangers collects over 275 hand-painted creatures, an autobiographical anthology of sorts, depicting the characters from the terrifying films devoured by the artist over the course of 40 years. The monograph features a parade of serial killers, demons, aliens and psychopaths, from early Universal monsters in melancholy black and white to modern horrors captured in full bloody color. The freaks of cult classics rub shoulders with the slick killers of modern blockbusters, all captured with Pardee's signature deranged style and a sense of childlike delight.
