Skull Style Book | Farameh Media

I need to get this book!
  
Skull Style: Skulls In Contemporary Art And Design 

Got into skulls because of my best bud Sonny. We now have a growing collection of skulls in our studio. Fascinated with this symbol of the occult, I also did a couple of skull sculptures before called "Dead Red" and "Imagibation" for an exhibition in Secret Fresh Gallery.

"PATRICE FARAMEH curates this comprehensive 496-page tome dedicated to the bold image of the skull. Once an emblem of evil and mortality relegated to fringe groups, the skull has been transformed into an avant-garde motif in contemporary art, design and fashion. SKULL STYLE features work from over 100 most influential artists and designers of today, such as Ron English, Damien Hirst, Philippe Pasqua, Sante D’Orazio, Angelo Filomeno, Jan Fabre, Kate MacDowell, Agus Sawage, Jean-Paul Basquiat, Kendell Geers, Mauro Perucchetti, Typoe and many others.

PATRICE FARAMEH, an internationally published editor and creative force behind the Curated Collection is using her expert knowledge of the luxury and lifestyle industry to curate this beautifully illustrated book showcasing the best examples of the bespoke creation of todays most sought after design. 

Four different glow-in-the-dark cover art options have been custom designed by fashion designer LUCIEN PELLAT-FINET. 

In addition, a collectible, numbered limited edition of SKULL STYLE will be available to book collectors, featuring an original signed skull silkscreen book cover by artist PETER TUNNEY. "
