About this deal

From Renoir to Marvel, Grandmas and Heavy Metal, in this episode Kate talks to Vanessa about her process and her influences. They discuss why Vanessa resonates with Noodle and delve into what lies in the shadows of her gritty, noir sequential artwork. Featuring brand new artwork by Jamie Hewlett and a host of guest contributions from friends and admirers of the band 💫 Hmm, I have mixed views on this one. I love Hewlett's style and the Taschen book is beautiful. This is nicely priced and if you are a die-hard Gorillaz fan, it's probably worth a look. Picasso said “Good artists borrow but great artists steal”. Here, Ruff Mercy enlightens Kate on how his life-long love for hip-hop impacted his approach to sampling other artists’ work. They talk about music as the greatest inspiration, the risks of imitation and how he came to create his unique marriage of drawing with live footage

Since then, Hewlett has continued to collaborate with Albarn on projects including an elaborate staging of the Chinese novel Monkey: Journey to the West by Wu Cheng’en, complete with circus acrobats, Shaolin monks, and Chinese singers. In 2006, he was named Designer of the Year by the Design Museum in London, and in 2009, Hewlett and Albarn won a BAFTA for their animated Monkey sequence for the Beijing Olympic Games. In 2015 The Suggestionists, an exhibition of prints at the Saatchi Gallery in London, demonstrated an exciting new direction in Hewlett’s practice.

Gorillaz Feel Good Inc Print | Band Song Lyrics Poster | Minimal Colorful Illustration | Modern Wall Decor | 00s Music Artwork This book is not a full retrospect on the story of Gorillaz. It does not cover the very obviously rich history of Gorillaz, their albums and fans. That definitely deserves a book on its own.

Absolutely agree with you. An artbook showing the evolution of the Gorillaz along with interviews/narrative etc would be great although I guess that might be too mainstream for them. When Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn first created the Gorillaz, art was at the forefront of the multimedia project. Now, they are set to turn that vision into something tangible with a brand-new art book on the way. For promotion of the book, an accompanying podcast, titled ' The Gorillaz Art Book Podcast', was also released, with each episode featuring an exclusive interview with one of the book's contributors. That said, I feel it's a little sad that it doesn't feel quite like an art book. It would have been nice to get some annotations or a little history about the art. Some sketches etc would be nice. In this episode, Jamie reveals the importance of experimentation and role of Gorillaz fans in his creative process. Kate questions Jamie on the conception of the Gorillaz Art Book, how artists can come together in an isolated world and what is next for the band.Gorillaz have announced an official art book with over 40 guest artists teaming up alongside the band’s co-creator Jamie Hewlett. Die Artworks von Jamie sind einfach unglaublich genial. Sein Stil ist so einzigartig. Über die letzten 30 Jahre hat er sich kontinuierlich verbessert, aber seinen Stil erkennt man trotzdem immer wieder. (für mich ist er mein größtes Vorbild in sachen zeichnen!) From the legendary Tank Girl to live-action animations with Gorillaz, a Chinese contemporary opera to an exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery, artist Jamie Hewlett is one of the most energetic figures of contemporary pop culture. This book reminds me a little of Goldtiger which was a humorous pastiche of 60s spy comic serialisations that would appear syndicated in newspapers. This is another humorous pastiche but I think in both cases the people behind the humour tried too hard. I love what I have seen so far of Song Machine. The Gorillaz have certainly not run out of juice at all but I just feel this doesn't do them justice. It seems like someone of a certain age trying to be funny and missing the mark slightly (as Goldtiger did, I feel. It's that knowing humour of the clever nudge-and-wink brigade).

Ich hatte das Buch letztes Jahr bereits im Juli vorbestellt und konnte es kaum erwarten als es Veröffentlicht wurde. As for the future, Damon Albarn has confirmed that a feature-length Gorillaz film is in the works at Netflix.Ich liebe z.B. auch seine Arbeiten zu Monkey - Journey to the West oder auch sein Tarot-Karten-Set, welche beide im Buch enhalten sind. Spannend finde ich auch die Umsetzung der Pinetrees. Etwas völlig anderes und trotzdem wirklich hübsch anzusehen.
