Publisher's Synopsis
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a masterpiece leaves you spellbound! Featured here is a gallery of over 250 original, mind-blowing, fantastic artwork by a creative madman who utilizes every sort of material and photographic means to express the full range of his humanity. His artwork has been featured on many magazine covers. Chapters include Abstracts & Surrealism, Mannequin Envy, Alternative Cubism, Geometric Designs, Nudes, Pen & Inkish, Graffiti Art, Sculptures, Ceramics, Nature Manipulated, Ax'Stonehenge, Symmetry & Asymmetry, Poetics, and Trivia. The author personally knows this contemporary artist, who is "too Ukrainian", though haphazardly born in Russia in 1940. His family was hidden from Nazis as they fled from communist control. For fifteen years the author and artist have corresponded and sometimes collaborated. As he battles daily to fend off the depression and anxiety brought on by complications of aging and health issues, using creative passion as his shining armor, the most remarkable works of art constantly flow from his mind, heart, soul and hands, thanks in large part to a keen eye and prolific imagination.Alexandre Nodopaka is a sexy old man with a sardonic sense of humor. He is chivalrous, tenderhearted, compassionate, broadminded, and very well educated. He has had the good fortune of a higher education and more importantly the real-life experiences of being immersed in technical skills and artistic expressions from an early age. His parents enriched his life by taking him to every museum they could drive to from where he grew up, for the most part, which is Casablanca, Morocco.This book is rated by the author 18+ because it contains erotic imagery and a bit of adult language. However, it is probably suitable for secondary teachers to use for Art education purposes for juniors and seniors in American high schools, depending on the local cultural sensitivities.
