Summary: FRESH but not THE FRESHEST
Review: if you're a dj krush fanatic like me, no question you should pick up this book. unfortunately, while the book's design and art direction is interesting, at times it overshadows futura's pieces. there seems to be a lot of 'filler' spreads, leaving me not completely satisfied when looking through it. still, its nice to see an oldschool talent have this kind of piece book.

also, if you haven't seen it, check out "scrawl: dirty graphics and strange characters" by the same publisher. its as good if not better at serving up fresh aerosol art (mode 2, phil frost, twist, etc.) for the people.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Waste of Money
Review: This book is so wonderful. It really captures the variances over the years in Futura2000's work. The most special, a personal side to the private man in the shadows of so many of the Greatest Designs (Mo'Wax, Bathing Ape, BSF, as well as his website! etc.) of the 1990's. I find this much more fulfilling than that of say, "Scrawl" an odd book that Many of the Artists contained, (i.e. Dj Shadow and Phil Frost) have claimed to have not known their words nor their artwork were to be printed. That has left "Scrawl" to feel quite the "exploited" book of artists rather than the Futura book, which Futura himself is quite proud. Futura2000 reveals his thoroughly detailed eye and hands on project through the collective pieces of his work and personal notes and background to his book "Futura." (You'll respect it right down to the paper and binding choices.) This one's the real gem of all the books put out around this 1990's; "Who's Who, Definitive Underground Graf-Designer."
