Bøker av Matt Furie

Once you flip through this mix-and-match menagerie of busts - depicting monsters, aliens, creatures, organisms and more -- you won't be able to stop. By flipping through the wirebound pages, cut into thirds, readers can create hundreds of iterations of 90 mythical beasts depicted by legendary artists Matt Furie, Skinner, and Will Sweeney. This interactive board book is a perfect gift book for anyone who appreciates monster movies, psychedelia, lowbrow art, underground comix, and unique and fun books with high production values. Artists Furie, Skinner, and Sweeney have pooled their imaginations to create a visual feast that demands returning to time and again.

The work in Mindviscosity has been created in the wake of Furie''s transformative experience as the creator of Pepe the Frog - a character meant to provoke joy and laughter only to be appropriated and subverted by others for genuinely sinister purposes. Furie''s recent paintings seemed leavened by his experience, as his unsettling menagerie of creatures seem content to withhold their true intent. Despite Furie''s use of inviting colours and friendly cartoon iconography, Furie''s richly visual imagination plumbs darker depths.
