while the other limited edition of his book sold out. i went and got this cheap (US$40) collection of 2 books: https://www.amazon.com/g...01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1the first book showcases a lot of 3d stuff, some new some old. the second book, is hilarious, as its a collection of all the 'this object has been removed' when showing off stuff in museums. good for art fans, and collectors. and for the price and slip cover, why not. later -1 Edited by user 29 August 2020 19:24:42(UTC)

Thanks for the heads up on this. Ordered via Amazon.co.uk. Just less than £25.

I've been contemplating buying this for a while now. It's currently £26.34 on Amazon in new condition. I might just take the plunge.

If you're a fan of art, you might like it. Be aware though, there are basically about 20 pages of unique work. The rest are just the same images with different colors and textures. The signs book, is ALL just different signs. Looks cool once, but I doubt I will be going back through them. Already converted books to digital format for reference. later -1

I am a fan of art but I've found with many art books I have bought before, I go through them, and then assign them to the bookcase rarely to be pulled out for a second look. It might just be another case of this. I suppose if I really wanted it I would have bought it by now...

It really is a nice set, and one you can go back to, to feel creatively inspired.
Things like his "waste paintings" created in photo editing software (in the Prints and Multiples book) clearly led to the creation of the "Crystal" Japanese CD artwork. I truly wish he'd gone in that colorful direction with the artwork for Get Ready and the international pressings of the singles.
