"Sorayama is an artist of extraordinary talent, wondrous imagination, and impressive skill.”  —Bob Guccione, Penthouse


"With joyful freedom he combines and morphs fear with happiness, pain with pleasure, repulsion with attraction, past with future, flesh with metal, the organic with ethereal."  —Thierry Mugler, fashion designer and photographer

4.0 out of 5 stars Sorayama's History in Images Feb 28 2011
By Fritz Da' Kat - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A very well printed book with so many images of Mr. Sorayama's work it is also overwhelming. Some of the images are quite small - which I find a bit insulting as all are equally important. Maybe it would have been wiser to bring this out in two volumes to give all of his work equal space. I have loved his work for years and am always interested to see what he will think up next.

An excellent, comprehensive collection of Sorayama's art works, featuring his original works, commissions, Hustler art, and his famous sexy robots, among other interesting designs, with other artists and designers chipping in with essays on how they feel about Sorayama, what he did for them, and how he inspired them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blown away!!!! Mar 7 2011
By james duncan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I LOVE this book! I've been a fan for years and have each of his previous books, as far as I know. Occasionally, I'll see a title that, I'm guessing, was only released in Japan. Anyway, this book is fantastic. It was exactly as I had hoped. As far as I can tell, none of the art has been cropped for whatever strange editorial reasons. The binding and paper are of very high quality. And the printing looks SHARP. Although many images are scaled down severely so that several images can fit on one page, I don't hold that against the publisher. There are SO MANY pieces represented that to show all of them even to a quarter page each would push the book beyond reasonable thickness and price.

I highly recommend this book and will be giving several copies as gifts this year. I hope that one day they will reprint this in an oversized edition. His work definitely deserves a larger format.
