Traverse Mark Ryden\'s vast wintry landscapes into the frigid domain of the majestic Snow Yak.
His work has been exhibited in museums and finer galleries worldwide..
With his masterful technique and disquieting content, he became a leader in the revitalization of painting, combining accessibility, craftsmanship and technique with socio-cultural relevance and emotional resonance.
Mark Ryden came to preeminence in the 1990s.
This book features all of the works, as well as photographs of the work on display and of Ryden\'s trip through Japan.
The works were originally shown at the prestigious Tomio Koyama Gallery in Tokyo in February 2009.
The inhabitants of this wintry world are bare angelic figures and their companion woolly Snow yaks.
In this set of work, Ryden paints with a pallet of subtle whites and greys to create mysterious scenes of soft snow, clouds, and fur.
Images from Ryden\'s acclaimed Japanese Snow Yak Show are reproduced in large 11" x 14" format, and include many detail images and drawings.
