4.0 out of 5 stars Quality over Quantity with a little more Quantity, October 1, 2008

This review is from: Better Nasty Than Sexy (Extended Remix) - The Art of Armando Huerta (Paperback)

This is very much like my review of "Better Than The Real Thing"

This book is more like a magazine, there are only 60 pages but the pages here are are filled with large high quality prints of Armando's work.

There is a very brief introduction then heads straight into the artwork , and ends with the last 3 pages showing Armando at play and at work.

It shares some images with "Better Than The Real Thing"

"Better Than The Real Thing" has the same physical dimensions but has 48 pages.

I honestly was expecting more artwork from this book, it's as though they decided to split one book apart into these two.
"Better Than The Real Thing"
"Better Nasty Than Sexy Extended Remix"

But the artwork here is truly top quality.

I hope he releases a new book with more work soon.

This review is from: Better Nasty Than Sexy (Extended Remix) - The Art of Armando Huerta (Paperback)

Sexy ladies against a, mostly, blank background - this is fine art with a populist appeal. While a few illustrations pass over the line (piercings anyone) most are fantastic representations of the female form (idealised anyway). Recommended for people with broad minds and a liking for fantastically real artwork - ARMANDO RULES
