Product Information
This book introduces the real American idol - Tiki! This is a collection of work by over 60 well-known and up-and-coming Tiki artists, including Shag, The Pizz and Lisa Petrucci. At the dawn of the 21st century, the world is at odds with its primitive past and its sophisticated cultural future. The result? Tiki art, Tiki culture - paradise escapism crossbred with the wild lights and neon nights of the modern trendysomething and his/her ritual hunting grounds. Slender bohemians relax in strangely-lit cafes with the thin stem of a cocktail glass supporting a brightly hued drink. Easter Island heads abut a table where a gaudily coloured girl with a blond bob arranges lunch on her mobile. Hailed as the new jazz, Tiki art is a genuine cultural phenomenon. Tiki Art Now! contains exclusively-commissioned work from the medium's most famous practitioners - Shag, The Pizz, Lisa Petrucci, Chuck Sperry, Sonny Buick, Monktiki - and a host of up-and-coming names.Product Identifiers
