"Shhhh--Michael Heizer working. The great projects of Michael Heizer, with their quest for titanic dimension, constitute the last manifestation of the adventure of Western Art. This book can be considered the first large monograph study of Heizer's oeuvre."

"Where else can you find all of the Playboy centerfolds in one place? The packaging in a suitcase also makes it a piece of art to display in your home. I always love anything limited edition as well, because it makes it really unique and special."

But that’s not quite how it went do..."
This Is For You ~ Rob Ryan
1 recommendation
"Rob Ryan's magical paper-cuts and screenprints have been used by designer Paul Smith, appeared on a Vogue" model and graced book covers ("The Book of Lost Things" by John Connolly, "The World to Come" by Dara Horn). "This Is For You" is a magical, romantic and touching story of thoughts and dreams, loneliness and longing, the personal and the universal. Each page has been cut out of paper using a ..."
