"Blood, Sweat & Tears" by Benjamin Gudel (published by Die Gestalten Verlag, Berlin 2005)




This is not an old book. I discovered it while on holiday and I just had to have it. I was not familiar with Gudel's work and I haven't a clue what the pictures are about but there's something "edgy" in their quality that grubs you instantly. I love the richness in the colour and textures and the boldness in the composition - they'd look stunning framed. More fantastic characters like these ones can be viewed on Benjamin Gudel's own website, http://www.guedel.biz/ as well as the publisher's website http://www.gestalten.com/arteditions/archive/artist?artistid=ceaea7651df13b74011df29a05e400d5
