{"product_id":"stylishly-drawn-contemporary-fashion-illustration","title":"Stylishly Drawn: Contemporary Fashion Illustration","description":"Fashion illustration is hot. More and more, the most arresting visual images seen today are not photographed; they are stylishly drawn. This smart, sophisticated, trend-setting book showcases the work of 29 of the world's top fashion illustrators-an international galaxy of talent whose evocative illustrations often seem to define what is hip and contemporary.\nThe artists, who include Ruben Alterio, Mats Gustafson, Jean-Philippe Delhomme, and Maurice Vellekoop, among others, are divided stylistically into three groups: Sensualists (who work in the fine arts tradition with paints, inks, wood blocks, and stencils, and who concentrate as much on the process of illustration as the subject); Gamines \u0026amp; Sophisticates (whose work is figurative and who use caricature and cartooning to create characters and comment on behavior); and Technocrats (those wizards of computer-generated art who are exploring the limits of illustration's newest frontier). Together, these illustrators are revitalizing the marriage of art and fashion at the turn of the millennium.\nLAIRD BORRELLI is a fashion historian at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology. She is a contributor to the journal Fashion Theory and has curated exhibitions at FIT.\n210 illustrations in full color, 91\/2 x 111\/4\"\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0810941228\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0810941228.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Borrelli, Laird\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
