Characters from comics, movies, TV shows, and video games are a part of the collective imagination forever, so its only natural that artists would begin integrating them into their work, giving birth to a new artistic movement: GEEK-ART. In TOTAL GEEK-ART the work of eighty painters, illustrators, and sculptors is collected to offer an international panorama of the geek-art genre of artistic expression. It presents profiles of geek-arts greatest founders as well as insights on the latest trends, such as the return of enamel pins, the development of toy photography, and the recognition of video game art.
Featuring stunning artwork and exclusive interviews and essays, this deluxe collection is a must-have for every pop culture enthusiast.
Thomas Olivri grew up loving geek culture and never outgrew it. He is the creator of Geek-Art.net, a popular online pop-culture community that features art inspired by the worlds of sci-fi, fantasy, video games, and comics, and hosts gallery shows of the work in his home country of France.
