I couldn't have an opionion about Mark Ryden that isn't flagrantly biased. This happens to me with a handful of people such as Danny Elfman or Tim Burton. It's just seems that everything they do is as close to perfection as one can get. The amount of detail in some of Ryden's pieces would amaze even those who find his art a little morbid or creepy. Few artists these days can be so outstanding in what they do that they are able to create their own cultural movement. Art and History book publisher Taschen seems to have thought the same about Ryden, producing this massive collectors edition volume of 1000 copies retailing aprox $1,000 USD. An additional 50 copies include a silk screen print in an all leather binding for a mere $5000 USD. Yes, might sound pricey to some but to hardcore fans is a real treat and maybe as close we can get to actually owning an original painting of this master of pop surrealism. Get yours now!
