An indispensable compendium for exploring and proposing new artistic expressions. Because Beauty and Greatness in art are timeless….
Tattoo Life celebrates its 25th birthday with an important new editorial project, a historical testimony covering the last 25 years of the best tattoo art to which it has always given voice. Entitled Echoes of Time. 25 Years of Tattoo Art the new book in The Great Books on The Art of Tattooing series, has just been released.
From the first volume in the series, Flash: The Art of The Mark, this new book highlights the artists who have defined tattooing over a quarter-century: from Boog‘s lettering to the Japanese art of Horiyoshi III, from Robert Borbas’dark style to the fundamental volumes 1 and 2 created in the traditional hub of Spider Murphy‘s, all of which sold out within months.
This latest volume features almost 300 iconic works by the masters such as Filip Leu, Mike Dorsey, taken from Chicano art, such as Con Safos and Lowrider Tattoo Flash. Historical artworks from two unique volumes, The Wooden Folder and The Traditional Folder, considered milestones of Japanese and Traditional tattoo styles. It is a rich mix of influential styles and artists, all brought together under the Tattoo Life name.
Echoes of Time. 25 Years of Tattoo Art is an exceptional historical record of the past 25 years of the best tattoo art, but also that ‘voice’ of the greats, whose contributions remain influential and inspiring. “Because beauty and greatness in art are timeless, they never grow old and cannot be dated” – Miki Vialetto
From Don Ed Hardy to Filip Leu, from Horiyoshi III to Luke Atkinson, Robert Borbas, Mick Tattoo, Macko, Jondix, Thomas Hooper, Theo Mindell, Dave Gibson, Orient Ching, Samuele Briganti, Ichibay, Horihiro, Rich Hardy, Henning Jorgensen, Joao Bosco, Mike Dorsey, Rudy Fritsch and many more…
Additionally, as a practical tool for tattoo artists, this volume includes a companion Travel Tool booklet. This study manual serves as a valuable reference, filled with hundreds of walkin-in designs from our digital bookshop tattooebooks.com – in a way, the next step 2.0 complementary to The Great Books on The Art of Tattooing.
