Spectrum 5, originally published in 1998 and now in its second edition, celebrates world-class fantasy art in a variety of media. Each work was selected by an award-winning jury of artists, designers, and art directors, and each image includes the size, title, and medium employed. Artists include such masters as Don Maitz, Michael Whelan, Jeffrey Jones, Alex Ross, Barry Windsor-Smith, David Bowers, Greg Spalenka, Kent Williams, Rick Berry, John Jude Palencar, and James Gurney. Spectrum 5 also includes the recipients of the yearly Chesley Awards, presented by the Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists.
Cathy Fenner and Arnie Fenner are recipients of the Locus Award and World Fantasy Award for Spectrum as Best Art Book. In addition to Spectrum, the Fenners have edited a number of books celebrating contemporary art. They live in Kansas.
