AFAS A Celebration of Automotive Art SIGNED by the artists Leather Book Pebble Beach Concours by Gerry Durnell and the Staff of Automobile Quarterly
This special, signed, leather-bound edition has been highly prized and much sought after for many years.
Long out of print, it debuted at the 2005 Pebble Beach Concours d\'Elegance meeting of the Automotive Fine Arts Society
Heavily illustrated and of heirloom quality, this volume is an extensive 316-page commemoration of 20 years of the Automotive Fine Arts Society (AFAS) exhibition at the Pebble Beach Concours d\'Elegance. In near fine condition with minimal shelf wear and part of a large private collection, it is protected by a matching slip case.
Signed by 23 AFAS artists across three dedicated signature pages, this work is as reverential as it is collectible.
Based on dozens of interviews and 250 photographs of the work of some of the finest automotive artists in the world, this volume is a true labor of love and is by itself an exceptional reflection of the bookbinder\'s art.
Artist profiles and articles capture the unique personalities, histories, and artistic approaches of each of the 32 artists of the AFAS. Striking photographic reproductions of their work—from paintings to sculptures—make this book as beautiful as it is fascinating. Also featured are the work and biographies of deceased automotive art luminaries such as Peter Helck, Walter Gotschke, and Carlo Demand. This is one coffee table book you\'ll open and enjoy time and again.
Book and outer case are in near fine condition. Large-format book measures 12 3/4\" x 16 1/2 x 2\" (33 x 42 x 5 cm). 316 pages.
