Title: Drop Dead Cute Author: Ivan Vartanian Publication Year: 2005 Publisher: Chronicle Books Pages: 160 When I first picked up this book several years ago, I was quite disappointed.
I love the texture of some of the pieces.
This gorgeous book features profiles of the artists based on fresh interviews, along with a generous survey of their art.
This next wave of painters and illustrators from the red-hot Japanese art scene blend aspects of manga, anime, and traditional art with their own idiosyncratic visions to create work that is international in appeal yet uniquely Japanese.
