Important World Artists V. 5

Published in 2022

Looking over the draft of Important World Artists Volume 5, we were blown away by the quality of the book. This may be due in some part to the graphic design, but of course it is first and foremost the result of the diverse and unique talents of the artists

The Important World Artists series was intended to present the work of noteworthy contemporary artists at the peak of their career. With this book especially, we think we have achieved this. Volume 5 of the series presents 94 artists who work in almost all of the media of the plastic fine arts - painting, drawing, mixed media, sculpture, installations, photography, digital art and more. And as usual in our books, almost every region of the world is represented.

We believe that this volume, as our previous ones, will constitute an invaluable sourcebook for curators, art consultants, gallery directors, interior designers, other art professionals, and also educators and students, as well as for art lovers everywhere.

Important World Artists V. 2

Published in 2017

The second volume of Important World Artists features 72 uniquely gifted artists from all over the world, and presents works in all the media of the visual fine arts that can be presented on a printed page: painting, drawing, collage, sculpture, 2-and 3-dimensional mixed media, photography, digital art, prints and lithography. For each artist, we tried to create an individual presentation, however brief, that will provide an insight into their practice, career and unique character. At the same time, we kept in mind the overall goal of creating a beautiful anthology of art, presenting the widest possible range of contemporary practices, thus creating a reference of high quality contemporary art from all over the world, for collectors, galleries, art consultants, interior designers, architects and other professionals concerned with fine art. Also our books together constitute a syllabus which can be used for educational purposes, for the study of contemporary fine art, and in fact they are increasingly being used by educational institutions in many parts of the world.
