Excellent Source Book,

This review is from: Panda Meat: Source Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Hardcover)
This book showcases a large number of artists who have made their name in the world of (rock concert) poster design. Many styles are represented and should be on the shelf of every art director who wants to have access to a list of current and hip designers & artists.

Panda Meat Kicks Some Serious Azz,
This review is from: Panda Meat: Source Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Hardcover)
Mere words are not enough to describe how goddamn wonderful this book is, although "astonishing" is one that comes to mind immediately after opening this tour de force of a book. A stunning collection, rich in contemporary pop culture, yet rooted in things from a more dark and sinister past. This sucker is highly recommended!

This review is from: Panda Meat: Source Book 1 (Bk. 1) (Hardcover)
While I agree that the reproductions in this book are bright and of a decent size in order to view detail, I really wasn't all that impressed with the content. I began to wonder if this wasn't just a thinly veiled attempt of a group of artists to make consumers pay for advertisement, instead of the other way around. All the glowing reports on this website and pronouncements that we simply must have this and buy one for our friends as well was, I admit, a catalyst in why I thought I should buy it and is now a reason why I think these reviews are fabricated by those who could benefit from its sale. That being said, there is definitely a variety of work here, which lends to being exposed to different types of art. It's a nice collection, but I just don't think it deserves the overwhelming praise it has gotten.
