About this Item

Both book and dustjacket are in pristine condition. Includes pop-ups and movable parts; die-cut components; some illustrations are tipped in. Includes essays by Gordon Burn and Stuart Morgan. An English artist, entrepreneur, and art collector. He is one of the Young British Artists (YBAs) who dominated the art scene in the UK during the 1990s. He is reportedly the United Kingdom's richest living artist. Created a foolproof technique for capturing the notice of the public and reviewers from the start of his work. Decaying carcasses horrified and drew museum guests, who perceived it as a challenge. Critics were likewise astounded, not so much by the work as by the exorbitant amounts demanded of it. The most prominent themes of his works revolve around death, rebirth, immortality and beauty. Very heavy book. ; Folio 13" - 23" tall; 334 pages.
