Prayer Requested

Více o knize

A new D+Q petit livreSuccinctly stated and punctuated with a sharp-edged visual style, Prayer Requested presents a narrative of illustrations and collages, each one accompanied by a found or scavenged prayer. First excerpted in Nicolas Robel's B.ü.L.B Comix , the works of Prayer Requested are equal parts inspiring, amusing, enlightening, and in some cases entirely peculiar, each marrying heartfelt intent with frank, unflattering interpretation. With a roster of clients that includes The New York Times , Playboy , and Rolling Stone , Christian Northeast provides illustrations that are honest and without reservation. They represent a creativity and freedom of thought and form, cleverly depicting the intimacy, urgency, and absurdity of these found prayers with a sense of explicit surrealism. Northeast's illustrations have been recognized by American Illustration , Communication Arts , Print , 3X3 , AIGA, the Society of Publication Designers, and the National Magazine Awards.
