TATTOOS by Mitch O’Connell

$14.95

The book contains 250 tattoo designs by Mitch O’Connell. They’re the best of his three sets of tattoo flash: Stewed, Screwed and Tattooed (2001), Done While Drunk (2002), and From the Bottom of the Barrel (2006). Each limited edition set sold for $100, and is now out of print. Mitch O’Connell: Tattoos collects the images in one easy-to-flip-through volume. Mitch O’Connell’s art is reminiscent of the Old School Tattoo Art, from masters such as Sailor Jerry Collins and Don Ed Hardy; but it uses a more contemporary sense of themes, along with O’Connell’s distinctive style. Mitch O’Connell: Tattoos is perfect for getting tattoo ideas or as a coffee table book.
“Wonderfully engaging and absorbing paintings. It’s cartoony, kitschy and sometimes downright silly. It’s chock full of of pop references and it’s the art that Mitch O’Connell knows how to make better than anyone” -Juxtapoz. “One of the great illustrators in the lowbrow art scene. If you’re looking for a suitable design and can’t find one in his flash you just might be impossible to please. Cute, dangerous and funny all at once!” -Barracuda Magazine. “Kitschy and wacky, pop cultureish and slick, full of pin up girls, retro Americana, cute wide eyed babes and traditional tattoo images all incorporating a wacky sense of humor that is exclusively Mitch O’Connell.” -Tattoos Downunder. 264 pages.

Description

Berlin is an international epicenter for the arts and has become a destination spot for street art creators and admirers alike. Urban Illustration features the most stunning and innovative street art from Berlin, where unknown local heroes and famous international street artists share a common canvas.

In the course of documenting over 500 of the best examples of art work in the streets of this dynamic German capital, the book transcends it’s core function as a city guide and becomes a magic carpet for armchair travelers and street art officionados alike.

With a focus on popular techniques such as stencils, cutouts, markers and wheatpaste, the author Benjamin Wolbergs documents the diverse styles of artists including D*Face from London, Faile and Swoon from New York and Fuck Your Crew from Berlin, just to name a few.

In addition to the images, 17 in-depth interviews give detailed information about the artists backgrounds and methods. A separate City map leads the way to the locations in the heart of Berlin where author Benjamin Wolbergs took his fascinating photographs, and where new street art is waiting to be discovered daily.
