This collection offers an unrivaled look at every different direction pinup art design has taken since the heady days of Bettie Page. More than 200 images from the best practitioners portray the influences of the greats- such as Gil Elvgren and Olivia De Berardinis- but also show new trends- including a revival in 1980s-influenced line work in the vein of Patrick Nagel- and of biomech-influenced approaches.

Previously considered taboo- pinup women continue to grow in popularity in the art community. The current appeal of old pinup art is the unpretentious- often naive- and joyful whimsy that celebrates the sensuality of the women depicted. Whether they're real or imaginary- pinup women are a celebration of feminine sexuality. The sheer breadth and span of pinup art today is amazing and every major genre is represented within- including: Classic American Sci-Fi and Fantasy Cartoon and Comic Book Hot Rod Neo-Surreal For the pinup aficionado and artist- this non-stop- eye-popping book is an essential source of inspiration.
