Text in English, French, Spanish & German. Edgar Hoill, the
co-author of the much-praised tattoo trilogy "Black & Grey
Tattoo 1-3" presents this globally unique compilation of motifs
from the ambience of Latin American culture. This lavishly
illustrated large-format volume features the work of artists and
tattooists who rank among the best that the scene has to offer.
They come from the Chicano scene in Los Angeles and elsewhere in
California, as well as from Mexico and Europe. Their sketches and
pictures are an impressive compendium and source of inspiration, a
captivating mixture of Chicano styles, inspired by Aztec imagery
and Mayan art, along with contemporary Mexican motifs that have
never before been shown in this way. This weighty photobook is the
ideal work for tattooists who are searching for new visual
inspirations and ideas. Creative individuals from the genres of
art, fashion and design will likewise find diverse and stimulating
ideas and inspiration here. Life and death are the leitmotifs of
these powerful Latino-inspired pictorial creations: art from Mi
Vida Loca (My Crazy Life) to the Dia de los Muertos (Day of the
Dead), plus low-riders and religious iconography.
