Oddity Takes a Freeze Frame, Jan 14 2000
By rareoopdvds - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Images (Hardcover)
Lynches artwork expressed here in Hyperions book entitled Images. Although I expected to see Lynch's artwork, ones that were in exhibits or from college, the majority of it is from his films. I can admit I have seen his films enough to not want to see pictures of them (if I did I would watch the movie again). But the pictures that show his work are highly unique and from a certain point of view, quite disturbing. Whether they are "good" art or not I am still undecided. Reccomended for Lynch fans only, or those that versed in the fine arts.

David Lynch as photographer, July 4 2001
By Mediahound - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Images (Hardcover)
You know David Lynch as a movie director and possibly as a painter, but this book will open your eyes to Lynch as a photographer. Packed with mostly black and white (I like the black and whites best) and a few color images, this book includes photos by and about David Lynch projects. It includes production stills from some of his movies, but more importantly, it includes images from his personal creative projects. My favorite collection in this book are his black and white "Industrial" photographs. I also love his "Nudes and Smoke" project. Both evoke a feeling of Film Noir, yet with an underlying beautiful darkness potential that only Lynch can attain. He also includes studies on things like dental hygiene and spark plugs. This is all very Lynchian stuff folks-and that's rockin' good news.
I would have personally preferred to see more personal projects and less of the movie stuff, but I guess the movie stuff is what sells.
If you are a Lynch fan, then you should buy this book. And if you are not one, chances are your interest will be sparked by this book and you may become one.

Lynch in a Nutshell..., Aug 24 2010
By Johnnie Öhlin "Jazz" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Images (Hardcover)
This is a nice book of David Lynch's work in images....There is colorful images and there is b/w images...snap shots from his movies and from his mind i guess...
There's some odd stuff and there's some with that smooth Lynchy touch also.
The book holds images from a variety of perspectives as life does and as Lynch does.
This book is a must in every Lynch fan's shelf as well as in the photgraphers shelf.
