1st printing. By Brigitte Koyama-Richard. In recent years, Manga has seen phenomenal success, not only in Japan, where it dominates the publishing industry, but also in the West. As swift and sudden as the popularity of this graphic art form may seem, Manga has, in fact, deep roots in Japanese culture, drawing on centuries-old artistic traditions. Today there is little doubt as to the meaning of the term Manga, but few in the West understand the long artistic history that gave birth to this phenomenon and the social factors that continue to shape it today. One Thousand Years of Manga is both an informative account of the genesis of the form and a visual delight. Hardcover, 9-in. x 11-in., 248 pages, full color. Cover price $19.98.

1st printing.
Through his highly subversive art Ron English (b. 1959) has bombed the global landscape with striking and often unsettling imagery. He coined the term" POPaganda" to describe his signature and darkly satirical renderings of corporate branding icons. His work is populated with a vast and constantly growing arsenal of original characters such as MC Supersized; the obese fast-food mascot featured in the movie Supersize Me; and Abraham Obama, which fused America's 16th and 44th Presidents.
This book is the first complete retrospective of English's work, compiling his paintings, illustrations, toys, sculpture, street art, and "agit-pop." Additionally, it contains a lengthy and comprehensive interview with the artist conducted exclusively for this publication.

Text and art by Robert Chesley Osborn. Foreword by Garry Trudeau.
The drawings of Robert Osborn, one of America's most admired artists and satirists, have provided trenchant comment on the American scene for the past four decades. His keen intuitive sense, coupled with the distinctive line from his brush, has added a dimension to the happenings of our time.
The ingredients of an Osborn drawing are, in various combinations, humor, indignation, motion, and satire -- not to mention artistry. Now, in this revealing book about himself, he shows what makes up the man and the artist.
Combining a candid text, personal photographs, and a wealth of pictures, Osborn on Osborn is a striking retrospective of Osborn's total output, from his earliest efforts, to serious paintings, to the evolution of his own unique style.
Osborn went from Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to Yale, then to Europe to study art; and he suffered pangs of failure as a painter. Only after his Dilbert training-manual cartoons saved hundreds of lives during World War II did his capacities as a drawer begin to receive deserved recognition -- in such magazines as Harper's, Life, Look, Esquire, Vogue, Time and the New Republic, as well as in numerous newspapers and books.
This is a man with strong loves and hates. He loves Matisse, Miro, Mozart, automobiles and airplanes, duck shooting and trout fishing. He hates war, smoking, Mussolini, and the deterioration of quality in America.
This is also a man with a tremendous sense of enjoyment. Osborn writes as he draws -- with humor, compassion, and insight -- and his extraordinary personality and delight in life shine through this self-portrait.
Hardcover, 9-in. x 11-in., 190 p[ages, PC/PB&W.

1st printing. Written by Brian Chidester. Art and cover by Joseph Baque. A gorgeous art book that also tells the unbelievable story of Joseph Baqué, a police officer and secretive artist who created 1500 imaginary creatures during the fascist era in Spain (1930s-60s) and told not a soul about them during his lifetime. Part Medieval-style bestiary, part natural history treatise, this remarkable body of work by Joseph Baqué came to the public's attention only in 2011. With this book, author Brian Chidester has penned the first-ever critical biography of this enigmatic creator and of his strange, whimsical creations. Threading 20th century art history, Spain's fascist era, and what record there is of Baqué's personal life, Chidester presents a full picture of one of the most fascinating "outsider art" careers of the 20th century. Grouped into nine distinct taxonomies - wild beasts, primitive men, bats, insects, giant spiders, snakes, cephalopods, crustaceans, birds, and fish - each creature is placed against a blank white backdrop and surrounded by a pencil-drawn square box. Despite setting up his creatures as species classifications instead of individual characters, the artist imbued each with an individualistic personality and self-awareness. They often gaze outward, perform as if on display, and even feel around for possible ways out of their aesthetic cage - which speaks to Baqué's visual fondness for carnival posters and freak show banners of the era. Collectively they represent a rich visual imagination at odds with the conformist political climate in which he created them. Hardcover (Horizontal Format) 10-in. x 5-in., 528 pages, full color. Cover price $49.99.

Art and cover by Elizabeth Haidle.
Portland-based artist Elizabeth Haidle muses, "Drawing from live models is hard. Why do we do hard things?"
