Who can correctly say what art exactly is…Is it simply paint spilled across a canvas, Multimedia styling’s of the broken-hearted outcasts or Commercial work for mass consumption? But one thing can be documented for sure, the plight of the Illustrator. The one who often puts his blood, sweat, tears and time into their work and far to often, gets over looked by the so-called "art inteligencia". At times dismissed as pulp, and "uneducated".
“Life & Death in Black & White” is a collection of today’s finest graphic illustrators, album cover artists, comic artists, tattoo artists, etc depicting their view of life and death . L/D in B/W means to showcase the time, detail, dedication and imagination put forth by these national and local artists and bring them and the art of illustration the full credit and appreciation that it has always rightly deserved.
