Stripped Bare: The Body Revealed in Contemporary Art Book

Not a book that you can absorb in a few sittings, Joe Colman shows us and tells us about his style of living as a painter of the apocalypse, if such a thing exists. The art is gruesome, vivid, painfully honest, and famously detailed with a single horse hair brush. My over sized book has illustrations that invite you to pour over them with a magnifying glass. Please only do this if you have a strong stomach and a high tolerance for intense imagery of violence, death and evil. I myself can't look at many of his paintings for more than a brief second.
