Hundertwasser - By: *)(*Boo*)(*, 22 Mar 2005
A reallly nice book. visuallly stunning with lots of pictures not only on Hundertwasser's work but, also himself. This book has it alll in an conveniant size & doesn't sacrifice anything. Contains details & images of Hundertwasser's skills including painting, stamps, tokens, & architecture to his own clothing. A reallly good alll round book to get you started with alot of information.
It is hard work, but worth it. - By: , 03 Nov 2003
This book differs significantly form other books in Taschen's Basic Art series. The others are written as pretty straight, linear & accessible accounts of the life & work of the artist in question. This book was written by Pierre Restany who was a friend of Hundertwasser's & is a rather more subjective account of his work structured around his theory of the The Five Skins. The style is not as accessible for a casual reader but if you make the effort you will understand Hundertwasser's ideas. This is well worth the effort as Hundertwasser is an important artist who's significance is often overlooked. The book is well illustrated & you certainly can't complain about the price.
