Customer Reviews

Great, but not as good as the first one.
After having bought Illusive 1, I thought i must get the 2nd one. Although the book is presented in the same way- packed with inspirational contemporary images, I think that it isn't as good as the first book. The first one was more cutting edge, more creative and different. I think the art in this book is a bit samey and safe, but it is still good. I guess the first book is just a bit too hard to live up to! !

Illusive Contemporary 2
This book is brilliant for quick inspiration from talented unique illustrators. If you appreciate individual, unusual illustrative styles you will love this book it barely stays on my shelf as I'm always flicking through it. There is quite a range of diverse illustrators, I found an illustrator who's work is amazing but very rare, as I could not find it anywhere. I strongly recommend this book!

not as good as expected
Illusive: Contemporary Illustration and Its Context: v. 2

i was a bit disappointed because i thought i would find more innovative and beautiful illustration, is not that is very bad, but it isn't right what i was expecting.
