Jack Davis: Drawing American Pop Culture: A Career Retrospective
“The only real problem with this beautifully produced book is that it’s much, much too short.... The art reproduces gorgeously... and the volume as a whole is an effort to give Davis the respect he deserves as a legitimate artist.” (Hillary Brown - Paste)“This giant gift-book portfolio of Davis' work reflects the high standard of design and archival presentation that is Fantagraphics' specialty... and it affords readers a panoramic view of the evolution and contributions of one of this country's most recognizable and influential cartoonists.” (Casey Burchby - SF Weekly)“The Davis book… fill[s]… 200 pages with full-sized examples of the half-cartoony/half-photographic approach that Davis brought toMadmagazine and countless movie posters. [It] offer[s] ample visual evidence of how [Davis] found the 'art' in commercial art, turning work-for-hire assignments into opportunities to express [his] particular vision… of the world.” (Noel Murray - The A.V. Club)“Jack Davis: Drawing American Pop Culture – A Career Retrospectiveis a wonderful tribute to the prolific artist... An amazing lifetime of work.” (The Christian Science Monitor)
