Pixel graphics in Stylish Artbook
The Masters of Pixel Art presents a selection of the very best pixel artwork and the artists behind it in an exclusive production. A beautiful coffee table book that can be presented along other art- or photo books, helping to show off the real potential of pixel art as well as inspire, impress and inform.
As additional content, many images are presented with background information, comments by the editor and in-depht stories from the artists themselves. The pixel graphics that emerged in the 80’s has inspired and created a sub-cultural era of pixelled art. This is an attempt to capture the style and soul from that period of pioneering and creativity.
