In her hugely successful books Creatures of the Deep and What's in
the Egg, as well as her enormously popular series of greeting cards
for the Museum of Modern Art, Maike Biederstaedt has established
herself as one of the preeminent paper artists working today. Now
Biederstaedt takes book engineering to new heights as she immerses
readers in five electrifying weather scenarios. As each spread
unfolds, a meticulously designed landscape emerges--a freighter
balances like a nutshell between high waves in the sea; a tornado
takes terrifying aim at a truck trying to outrun it; a rain-spewing
storm cloud towers like a skyscraper over a farm house. Nature's
delicate beauty emerges in the intricate shapes of a snowflake and
in the luminous arc of a rainbow. Each page features an informative
description of its weather event and the book closes with sobering
commentary on the effects of climate change. A wondrous
introduction to weather for budding climatologists, this is also an
artistic tour de force that collectors will treasure.
