The FPG Years - Bernie Wrightson

Hardcover, geseled, NIEUW, 192 pagina's

Finally, a large art book that collects the incredible paintings that Bernie Wrightson spent two years creating! It’s been almost 30 years since Bernie Wrightson let his imagination run wild on his two trading card series. For this once-in-a-lifetime creative endeavor, Bernie was given free rein to explore whatever ideas he wanted. Over a two-year period, he created 150 fantastic NEW paintings. Vivid images of swamp creatures, vampires, werewolves, and beasties of all types congregate throughout these works. It’s a spellbinding collection of all the things for which Bernie is best known. These paintings have never been assembled in book form. They have never been seen at close to the actual size at which they were produced. All of the paintings have been lovingly photographed on museum-quality transparencies that were made when Bernie first completed the artwork in 1993 and 1994, so they will appear as fresh as they were the day that he sent them into the FPG offices. This is a comprehensive hardcover collection that measures 9” x 12” and is a real trip through Bernie’s hair-raising body of work for FPG. Included is the original, insightful text that he wrote for each painting, as well as original documentation of the making of the two trading card series. This is a book that is truly 30 years in the making, and we hope that you will join us for our celebration of Bernie Wrightson’s world!
