false 6080377 3 Walton Ford's life-sized watercolors of animals could be mistaken for 19th-century natural-science illustrations or British colonial paintings. Except they're not. Something strange and usually sinister is happening in each of Ford's works, whether it's a turkey crushing a small parrot with its claw, a collection of monkeys wreaking havoc on a formally set dinner table, or a buffalo surrounded by a pack of bloodied white wolves... in the middle of a proper French garden. Executed with the deft skill of a natural history artist, Ford's works vibrate with an intensity of uncanny familiarity; they are both reassuring in style and disturbing in content. With titles like Au Revoir Zaire, Dirty Dick Burton's Aide de Camp, and Space Monkey, his paintings not only blur the lines between human and animal history, but also open the doors to a world of real-life fantasy, dreams, and nightmares. For this hand crafted, limited-edition volume, Ford's paintings have been color-separated and reproduced in Pan4C, the finest reproduction technique available today, providing unequalled intensity and color range. The book includes 12 horizontal and 4 vertical foldouts, along with dozens of details, which present the work at a scale that practically allows the viewer to enter the ancient and peopled landscapes, feel the brush of a bird's feathers against flesh, and experience the hot breath of a wild cat about to go for the jugular. 1281554 1 11 2007 Pancha Tantra (Sumo) total:9|5:8|4:1|3:0|2:0|1:0| 9 44 26 6 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 4 0 false Mon Nov 16 15:14:23 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 16 15:30:26 -0800 2009 more...]]> 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Mon Nov 30 10:58:00 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 30 11:00:02 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Thu Oct 01 18:10:49 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 01 18:27:50 -0700 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Thu Sep 10 12:03:17 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 10 12:04:21 -0700 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Thu Dec 03 09:44:31 -0800 2009 Thu Dec 03 09:45:14 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Fri Jan 09 00:55:27 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 09 00:57:39 -0800 2009 ]]> 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Wed Dec 09 03:21:32 -0800 2009 Wed Dec 09 03:21:41 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Mon Nov 30 11:55:07 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 30 11:55:07 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Sun Nov 29 18:32:55 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 29 18:32:55 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Wed Nov 25 19:47:41 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 25 19:47:41 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Sun Nov 22 22:32:07 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 22 22:32:07 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Thu Nov 19 07:46:01 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 19 07:46:01 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Thu Nov 05 11:56:44 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 05 11:56:44 -0800 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Mon Oct 26 17:39:42 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 17:39:46 -0700 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 08:11:51 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 08:12:17 -0700 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Sat Sep 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 20:44:30 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 21:36:45 -0700 2009 6080377 3822852376 9783822852378 9 6 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6080377.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra 5 0 false Tue Sep 08 16:42:07 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 21:21:41 -0700 2009 1292459 3822843865 9783822843864 0 0 4.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1190035776m/1292459.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1292459.Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Wed Aug 26 08:21:45 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 26 08:21:45 -0700 2009 1292459 3822843865 9783822843864 0 0 4.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1190035776m/1292459.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1292459.Pancha_Tantra 0 0 false Sat Aug 30 15:54:32 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 30 16:04:39 -0700 2008 2673464 3822851930 9783822851937 0 0 4.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2673464.Walton_Ford_Pancha_Tantra_Art_Edition 0 0 false Sun Jul 06 15:19:32 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 06 15:19:32 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6080377
