Who knew that Ed Hardy has been breathing life into tatoos for more than forty years? It seems that the rest of the world (and fashion) has finally caught up with him. This book will appeal to people who appreciate the mastery of art that defies generalisation. His scope and knowledge is incredible.

Book description

Internationally renowned for breathing new life into tattooing, Ed Hardy has created a startling array of artwork “Beyond Skin” over the last four decades. Hardy’s drawings, prints, paintings, and newest pieces in porcelain effortlessly cross boundaries.

Integrating the iconography of every thing and every place, from classic tattoo flash and Hollywood cartoons to the Old West, from Asia and Polynesia to Medieval Europe, Hardy achieves a weird beauty by mixing the grotesque, humorous, subtle, and flamboyant.Text in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian.
