5.0 out of 5 stars Nightmares can be beautiful!, Jan 2 2011
This review is from: BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARES : ARTBOOK (Hardcover)
The images in this book are beautiful, whimsical, disturbing, dreamlike and thought provoking. They are like the dark side of a nursery rhyme, or the edge of a dream of lovely things with a hint of darkness. Don't let the rosy cheeks and dewy eyes fool you; these characters are in control of the subliminal messages that abound throughout these illustrations. A wonderful addition to any eclectic library and for those that enjoy contradictions.

5.0 out of 5 stars a mesmerizing piece of art, April 19 2011
By OrionDelgado - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARES : ARTBOOK (Hardcover)
i had the honor to recieve a signed copy of this book from the artist "Nicoletta Ceccoli" as a gift some monthes ago... and i have to say till now i go to this book and surf the pages and i am still amazed by the amount of care to the details shown in every corner and inch in this masterpiece.
being a Nicoletta Ceccoli fan since some years now, i had the luck to know her personally... and more and more i grow a bigger fan of her art... and this time with this artbook she BALDLY nailed it... this is a Must have to any one who finds the beauty in the worlds and paintings of Nicoletta Ceccoli... 136 pages of Plain art.. fantasies and beauty.
glad to deal with my 1st print from the "Venusdea" labels also... the quality of the print and the paper material is outstanding -i say that and i have been in the business of the printing and publishing- and they hands down "IMPRESSED me".
the cover of the book is "Hard Cover" with glossy pattern that's interwoven around the title and shiny to the light in a very elegant way.
some of the paintings are of double page (wide scale), which was a little turn-off for these paintings due to the deep "page fold" in the middle of the paintings due to the big amount of pages. but other than that there's not a single fault in the whole book.
the relative high price of the book, is well met by the quality and attention to details in the process of the print, the quality of the material of the papers and the cover elegancy.
Hands down my best "Art book" in my whole collection, a must have for art lovers, specially for any Nicoletta Ceccoli follower.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Artistry, Jun 6 2011
By Animazing Gallery - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARES : ARTBOOK (Hardcover)
I have one of the "used" autographed copies through Amazon, and it is absolutely a favorite in my extensive art book collection. This artist is perhaps more well known for interesting book illustrations, but this collection of unpublished fine art paintings in "Beautiful Nightmares" is more personal work, derived from her imagination. Dreamy, doll like girls in fantastic landscapes and storybook landscapes that are a little twisted; edgy and macabre. The book is appropriately titled, that's for sure! Her work may be compared to Mark Ryden, born from the "Lowbrow" movement in southern California, but this artist is from Italy, and her vision is unique. Her compositions are provocative and the symbolism is rampant throughout each page,.....but she is has less random "beef", ahem, than Ryden. So his work seems much more surreal, although both styles are based in a figurative style.

Nicoletta's technique is masterful, and many of the pages have been reproduced on a large scale for galleries as limited edition fine art prints. The book itself is very elegant--thick pages and the printing is excellent. The paintings almost always take up an entire page, and sometimes two. Beautiful enormous enormous images that create a visual resume for this talented artist. I paid more than the list price for my autographed first edition copy, but the unsigned book does not actually seem to be available, and I go back to it again and again....
