The Japanese Tattoo: Ideas for Tattoo Art Lovers

This book is for those who has interest for tattoo art. Tattoo artists, or anyone who desires to have tattoos. Japan has been known for it's amazing tattoo design for centuries. You will find them in this book.

American photographer Sandi Fellman used a rare large size Polaroid camera to create these photos of Irezumi Japanese men and women who wear elaborate full-body tattoos. Fellman treats the tattoos as artworks and their creators as artists. Her text touches on the tattooing process, common motifs, the sociology of the tattoo, and relationships between the tattoo masters and their clients. Author D.M. Thomas has contributed two pages of his reactions to these unusual and even disturbing images. The 46 color plates in this volume, most of them whole body nudes, should prove provocative, fascinating, or repellant to a wide variety of library patrons. Kathryn W. Finkelstein, M.L.S., Cincinnati

Reader's review:
Great Art, but subpar writting, January 22, 2008
By J. W. Mullins (Germany)
This book is worth the price for the pictures alone. Which is good because the writing is extremely sub par, with misinformation and just wrong information. The art is wonderful but the writing is so bad that you are probably better of not even reading it.
