The Illustrator. 100 Best from around the World

For the last ten years, Steven Heller and Julius Wiedemann have traced the latest developments in illustration across the globeand for all those who thought digital heralded the end of an era, theyre here to set the record straight. There were extraordinary eras before mass media changed our viewing habits, back in the day when illustration was the most primary means of illuminating the word on paper, to today when we get our words and images on screens as small as a watch face. And in this environment, todays designers and artists are holding their own brilliantly. Illustration is more free and varied than ever, and it is ubiquitous in all kinds of media from paper to screen, books, packages, clothing, cars, and restaurants.
