After the example of Noah, who saved the animal species in his ark
for posterity, this volume, an "Illustrated Animal Bible by Artists
from all over the World," aspires to rescue and house the animals
among us today. Recruiting over 200 artists, illustrators and
designers from every corner of the globe, each of whom was invited
to select a creature (animal or species) to represent their
birthplace, and add it to the Ark, the project has resulted in an
amazing illustration bible that mixes styles and techniques,
showing how astonishing nature is and why we should take better
care of the planet and the species on it. At once fun, graphically
charming and ecologically intelligent, "Ark "wil immediately appeal
to children and design audiences. The final parade of animals is
astonishing: the burrowing owl for Canada, the capybara for
Uruguay, the Carey turtle for Colombia, the Caribean manatee for
Puerto Rico, the nene goose for Maui, the spectacled bear for
Peru... "Ark "also supplies a section of "Nature Facts," an
illustrated tale of Noah and a list of all the artists
involved--among them Allan Deas, Gustav Dejert, Drew Funk, Chris
Garbutt, Kronk, Cecy Meade, Meomi, Noper, Shen Plum and Roland
Tamayo.
