Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. At the intersection of science and art, documentary and fantasy, the beautiful and the grotesque lies the work of Alexis Rockman, whose meticulously rendered paintings fascinate, amuse, and alarm -- often simultaneously -- as they explore the relationship between humanity and nature. A nat…ive New Yorker who frequented the American Museum of Natural History as a boy, Rockman is inspired by botanical and zoological illustrations, as well as early-twentieth-century murals and dioramas. Yet his work goes beyond those genres to portray, with dark humor, a variety of mutated and mutant animals (such as square cows and featherless chickens), interspecies couplings, and macabre visions of a future world. This richly illustrated volume is the first to offer a comprehensive overview of Rockman's oeuvre, from his early works, such as the fascinating yet disquieting 'Aviary, ' in which birds perch against a blood-red sky, to his more recent 'Expedition' series, inspired by the artist's field studies in the rain forests of Brazil and Guyana. Important large-scale works, such as 'A Recent History of the World' and 'Evolution,' are reproduced as dramatic fold-out pages. Complementing the visual documentation of Rockman's work is commentary by the artist himself. Three incisive essays further elucidate the scientific and artistic influences on Rockman's art and show how, at the same time, he has broken with those traditions to create a unique, powerful, and at times haunting vision of the collision between humankind and the natural world. Open copy with light overall wear, mild wear on dust jacket which is wrapped in Brodart protector, clean pages with tight binding.

Condition: Minor rubbing. VG. orig.cloth Minor rubbing. VG. 35x25cm, 323 pp., With essays by Stephen Jay Gould, Jonathan Crary, & David Quammen. Weighs ca. 3 kilos. ["Alexis Rockman, born in 1962, is a leader among a young generation of artists who have returned to figurative content. Inspired by the natural sciences, he creates… perverse yet seductive paintings that explore the intersections between biology and technology, reality and fantasy. Rockmans earliest work deals with natural history in ways that are eerie but believable; his latest work is inspired by a trip to Guyana and by late-nineteenth - and early twentieth-century science expedition narratives. The graphic presentation of this full-color monograph is a tour-de-force, with striking reproductions of Rockman's beatifully rendered and thought-provoking paintings" - publisher's description].
