Description

1000 Tattoos, edited by Henk Schiffmacher, is a visually rich exploration of tattoo art, history, and culture from around the world. This special 25th anniversary edition looks at tattoos as wearable art, tracing the many ways people have decorated their bodies in the name of identity, beauty, rebellion, memory, and passion.

Filled with designs and photographs, the book moves through tattoo history from nineteenth-century engravings to tribal body art, circus performers of the 1920s, sailor tattoos, biker designs, and modern tattoo culture. With text in English, French, and German, it offers an international look at an art form that has become a lasting cultural institution.

A strong choice for tattoo lovers, artists, collectors, design students, and readers interested in body art, visual culture, and alternative history, 1000 Tattoos is a striking addition to any art or pop culture collection.
