Guess Who? - The Many Faces Of Noma Bar

Product Description

It requires skilled eyes & hands for artists to render subjects by translating their personalities, physical traits & careers into a few well-executed lines. Having worked for such publications as The New York Times, The Guardian & Time Out London, Noma Bar is one artist capable of such visual feats. From famous celebrities such as Steven Speilberg to infamous ones like Michael Jackson, to cultural icons like Albert Einstein & Elvis, to political figures like George Bush & Saddam Hussein, Bar has made a career of creating unique caricatures through illustrations that rely on the power of association, & sometimes a bit of imagination. Stephen King has hatchet eyes; broken chains accent Nelson Mandelas facial expression; Joseph Stalins nose & mouth are shaped like the hammer & sickle. All of Bars faces exude the power of the visual, in that we recognize who they are through what they do.
