So quickly got through another nonfiction title for tonight, and this one was a real treat to go through! Adam Rowe's "World's Beyond Time: Sci Fi Art of the 1970s"!
Essentially this is an art book covering not just only SF art, but also fantasy and even some horror. The book contains multiple sections covering multiple art stylings and also subject matter too, from weird abstract and otherworldly surrealism to cryptozoology and the paranormal. And to boot there are art works by various artists which even includes short bios about said artists.
This was a most spectacular art book that I've gotten through! The artwork that's included in this book is just phenomenal! And much of them were used in many pieces of media from books, magazines, games ect.
Though some of the art does featured in it does go beyond the timeline stated in the book, but they are probably just a good too. The short bios are pretty interesting as well as the observations made about the various subject matters that these artists used in their work. This book was perfect eyecandy as well as being a light and interesting read too!
