The Art Of Mondo - Movie Posters Book Review

A beautiful synthesis of graphic design, typography and illustration, The Art Of Mondo celebrates the limited edition and much sought after film posters created by the Texas based company, which also specializes in Vinyl soundtracks and toys. The posters are usually sold out within minutes after their release, so this huge catalog ( with over 350 pages of art work ) is a perfect way to enjoy Mondo’s considerable collection of fantastic poster art.

(image above) The Boogie Nights poster is illustrated by artist Rockin’ Jelly Bean, whose specialty is erotic art. Definitely check out his art book.

A splendid volume to enjoy the very best of film art and illustration. The beautiful poster reproductions ( pretty big in print size too, see image above ) are protected by a sturdy hardcover that should last for a long time to come. My highest recommendations.

These guys go in. They definitely reinvigorate classics. Maaaaaan could you imagine someone out there doing this for classic record albums?!

Cool.
I see some Tomer Hanuka in there.
Love his posters.

Nice work, but some of them look like he just live-traced photos of the actors, and a few are even stolen from other artists.
