Some people make a connection between dark art and gothic subculture, others simply associate it with the metaphysical, the disturbing or the nightmarish. However you perceive it, this art form is now part of mainstream culture and is becoming ever more popular. It can be found in all sorts of media including advertising, television, and film. This collection of works compiled by Juxtapoz features today’s most talented dark artists, all of whom create a certain mood or emotion in their work that is uniquely theirs. Some are especially lush in detail and color such as those by Wendy Cogan-Toyoda; others more minimalist such as Irana Douer’s “hidden treasure” nudes. Artists featured include Cleon Peterson, Richard Colman, Seonna Hong, Marci Washington, Caroline Hwang, Alex Pardee, Suzanne Sattler and more. See less

Bad Habits is the mostly-autobiographical story of Road’s personal revolution. Growing up Cuban in West Miami, the protagonist clashes with the confining and repressive aspects of that culture, and, like countless other young people, leaves for New York as soon as she's able. Landing in Brooklyn, she moves into a house full of wild characters, and enters an underground scene that few ever see. Of her new family, she writes, “We were the things that went bump, crack, and hump in the night.” In Bad Habits, Road takes us on an uncensored tour of her world- dingy dive bars, drugs in dark bathrooms, and long nights in strange beds. Her street-psychopharmacology results in experiences that are both revelatory and tragic. In her circle, drugs are cheap, ubiquitous, and they sometimes feel like the only way out. Writing in a tradition of transgressive authors—mostly male like Genet, Bukowski, Selby, Rechy, but also female like Kathy Acker and Eileen Myles—Road takes us deep inside the damaged... See less

Beautiful/Decay explores a group of artists who conjure notions of the uncanny with their hauntingly off-putting works. Whether introducing distortion, violence, the grotesque or the ghostly, each artist alters traditional (super)naturalism to create visions that teeter on the boundaries of the comedic and the downright diabolical. Hinting to an level of existence beyond the scientifically visible universe, the artists in Book 1: Supernaturalism examine the potential for alternate, darker realities. Includes some of the most in-depth interviews and image-rich spreads on emerging and establishing artists available today. Hand-numbered limited edition of 1500. Featured artist Kyle Thomas is personally hand-drawing each cover with a one-of-a-kind artwork. No two books will be the same! Within the purple skeleton-crystal magic mirror, Thomas' playful black ink drawings take new form.

Review "Black is not the first color that comes to mind when you think of plants. But as this beautiful guide makes clear, dark-hued leaves and flowers, from perennials to tropicals, have enormous appeal in a garden." (Martha Stewart Living ) Product Description Striking, mysterious, sinister, and strange all describe the singular appeal of plants with black (or near-black) foliage, flowers, or fruit. For some gardeners, they are curiosities that yield a special thrill. For others, they are invaluable for providing contrast with brighter elements. Whatever the source of their somber magic, these dusky denizens of the plant kingdom are irresistible to anyone drawn to nature's more unusual manifestations. In this compact, accessible volume, Paul Bonine profiles 75 of the most alluring black annuals, perennials, bulbs, and shrubs. Some of the plants -- like agapanthus and lilies -- are darker versions of familiar favorites, while others are rarities that will appeal to the most discerning... See less

Bomp! is the definitive survey of the wildly innovative magazine of rock & roll commentary and criticism that was published from 1966-1978. Before Spin and Rolling Stone, there was Bomp! From psychedelia to punk, Bomp! was the music magazine for serious rock & roll aficionados. Bomp's founder Greg Shaw (1949-2004), was neither a singer nor guitar player, but still became a legend in rock & roll. Greg's legacy of two magazines, Who Put the Bomp! and Mojo Navigator, were wild treasure troves of writing and graphics that gave birth to the modern rock press as we know it today. From psychedelic garage bands to early insurgent punk rock, Bomp! provided a view- from- the- garage of the most crucial era in rock history. Rare gems are featured here, many reproduced as facsimile pages, like early interviews with The Doors and The Grateful Dead, to the first writing about The New York Dolls and The Sex Pistols. In between the writing, the original and vintage artwork and graphics amplify the... See less

In 1907 Nell Brinkley drew cartoons for the Hearst syndicate and became a household name: The Brinkley Girls, a merchandising phenomenon, had taken over from the Gibson Girls. For more than 30 years, in pen and ink, Nell Brinkley depicted women of different races, cultures and occupations. Using her fame, Brinkley campaigned for better working conditions and higher pay for women. The Brinkley Girls collects colored full-page art from 1913 to 1940. Here are her earliest adventure series, "Golden Eyes and Her Hero, Bill;" her almost too romantic series, "Betty and Billy and Their Love Through the Ages;" her flapper comics from the 1920s; her 1937 pulp magazine-inspired "Heroines of Today." Included are photos of Brinkley, reproductions of her unpublished paintings, and an intro by the book's editor, Trina Robbins, which gives the book context. The Brinkley Girls has appeal for Women's Studies scholars as well as fans of newspaper comic reprints and those interested in comics history. See less
