Katsuya Terada + Kim Jung Gi - Illustrated Book
127 pages, 8.5 x 11 inches. Soft cover with a dust jacket.
For the first time ever in history, Terada Katsuya and Kim Jung Gi have come together to create their masterpiece in this new book. This book is a collection of fierce yet beautiful black lines and transcendent depictions of space. Many readers might think, “Who drew what and how?” when looking through the art created by these two.
Instead of showing the works of these two artists in a traditional art book format, the editor decided to let the artists create their images freely as they would in their sketchbooks. We hope you take your time to slowly absorb the energy of the lines and appreciate the beauty of the colors, rather than focusing on the logic.
This book depicts the daily life of an artist.
It also includes their own retrospective works and interviews.
Kim Jung Gi - 2022 Sketch Collection
Hardcover, 480 pages, 8.5 x 11 inches.
The 2022 Sketch Collection, Kim Jung Gi's latest sketchbook filled with masterful drawings created since 2018, is now available.
Originally scheduled for release in the summer of 2020, it was postponed due to the pandemic, but this provided Jung Gi with a unique opportunity. Instead of touring and working on projects, he was able to return to what he loves most: drawing incessantly and putting his imagination to the test. The result is 480 pages of mesmerizing illustrations.
The pages are filled with sketches, portraits, caricatures, cityscapes, comics, and all kinds of real-life characters, whose lines are so dynamic that they almost seem to move towards you as they try to leave the page. The various techniques and colors add to its complexity, making it an excellent reference for artists and/or students.
