Köln, Taschen, 2009 Bound, hardcover, no dustjacket, 320pp., 29x38.5cm., richly illustr. in col., in very good condition. Unfortunately without the original dustjacket. ISBN 9783822852378. The sinister majesty of Walton Ford's wildlife. At first glance, Walton Ford's large-scale, highly-detailed watercolors of animals may recall the prints of 19th century illustrators John James Audubon and Edward Lear, and others of the colonial era. But a closer look reveals a complex and disturbingly anthropomorphic universe, full of symbols, sly jokes, and allusions to the 'operatic' nature of traditional natural history themes. The beasts and birds populating this contemporary artist's life-size paintings are never mere objects, but dynamic actors in allegorical struggles: a wild turkey crushes a small parrot in its claw; a troupe of monkeys wreak havoc on a formal dinner table, an American buffalo is surrounded by bloodied white wolves. The book's title derives from The Pancha Tantra, an ancient Indian book of animal tales considered the precursor to Aesop's Fables. This large-format edition includes an in-depth exploration of Walton Ford's oeuvre, a complete biography, and excerpts from his textual inspirations: Vietnamese folktales and the letters of Benjamin Franklin, the Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini and Audubon's Ornithological Biography.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. "This book is copy number 966 of a worldwide edition of one thousand six hundred copies plus two hundred twenty artist's proofs." [] "Directed and produced by Benedikt Taschen." [] Essay--"Field Notes--Walton Ford's Bestiary" by Bill Buford. Signed by Walton Ford, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, 2007. Pristine, clean & tight copy, AS NEW, packaged in clamshell box, unmarked & very fine artist's edition. [] "If only greed be there / For some material feast, / How draw a line between / The man-beast and the beast? --- The Pancha Tantra [] "Walton Ford's life-sized watercolors of animals could be mistaken for 19th-century natural-science illustrations or British colonial paintings. Except they're not. Something strange and usually sinister is happening in each of Ford's works, whether it's a turkey crushing a small parrot with its claw, a collection of monkeys wreaking havoc on a formally set dinner table, or a buffalo surrounded by a pack of bloodied white wolves--in the middle of a proper French garden. Executed with the deft skill of a natural history artist, Ford's works vibrate with an intensity of uncanny familiarity; they are both reassuring in style and disturbing in content. With titles like 'Au Revoir Zaire,' ' Dirty Dick Burton's Aide de Camp,' and 'Space Monkey,' his paintings not only blur the lines between human and animal history, but also open the doors to a world of real-life fantasy, dreams, and nightmares. For this hand crafted, limited-edition volume, Ford's paintings have been color-separated and reproduced in Pan4C, the finest reproduction technique available today, providing unequalled intensity and color range. The book includes 12 horizontal and 4 vertical foldouts, along with dozens of details, which present the work at a scale that practically allows the viewer to enter the ancient and peopled landscapes, feel the brush of a bird's feathers against flesh, and experience the hot breath of a wild cat about to go for the jugular. Collected together for the first ever in-depth exploration of Walton Ford's oeuvre, Ford's bestiary takes its name from one of the texts he frequently cites in his work: The Pancha Tantra, the ancient Indian book of animal folktales collected from the 3rd to 5th centuries B.C. that is considered to be the precursor to Aesop's Fables. Stories derived from many of the texts that served as the germinal seed for these paintings fill the book's appendix; and an original essay by New Yorker staff writer Bill Buford substantiates the notion that this contemporary artist is more than just one to watch, but one who will stand the test of time. Presented in a handsome clamshell box and limited to a total of 1,600 copies signed by the artist, WALTON FORD Pancha Tantra belongs in any serious collector's library." [publisher copy] Printed on acid-free paper. Finished in Luxor book cloth with a leather spine and corners with gold embossing. Packaged in a clamshell box covered in Luxor book cloth.
