Figures in space suits, mannequins, and ghostly apparitions encounter one another in a fictional cosmos. Set against abstract backgrounds, Gringer's works tell stories that follow their own physical laws, and cartoon-like creatures with human features draw the viewer into the artist's fantasy world. Combining lurid contrasts with delicate, pastel-like shades, Gringer's technique is based on that of miniature painting. Complete with more than one hundred color illustrations, this volume is a retrospective that provides a comprehensive overview of Gringer's outstanding body of work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Gnesa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3777437646\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783777437644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hirmer Verlag GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 10.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Nicole Gnesa","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982271348991,"sku":"9783777437644","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_023e897b-8719-45e3-93dd-4fa3a7da731a.jpg?v=1683260191","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philip-grzinger-nicole-gnesa-9783777437644","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
