The Illustrator. the Best from Around the World

For the last couple of years, Steven Heller and Julius Wiedemann have traced the latest developments in illustration around 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 primary means of illuminating the word on paper--all the way to today, when we get our words and images on screens as small as a watch face. 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 to 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. The 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 around the world. We dare you to pick your favorites.
