"What makes Todd so brilliant is his inability to create anything ugly.  He tries, lord knows, he tries.  He instinctively finds the beauty in anything he draws whether it be broken and beaten women, severed limbs, dead animals, conjoined twins, or dead baby fetuses.  It's a rare gift to make people think a four-titted cow/chicken is adorable."

This book contains a selection of Todd Bratrud's personal favorite works from recent years for companies including: Flip, The Skateboard Mag, Nike, Volcom, Enjoi, Teenage Runaway, The High 5, and more.

 

The release of these two Seen Unknown titles marks the beginning of a new MBP series, edited by Winston Tseng, art director for Enjoi Skateboards. Tseng has worked with some of today's most genre-defying visual artists and designers whose work extends well beyond skateboard culture. From sneaker and apparel design to product packaging, posters, high-profile ad campaigns and fine art galleries, the work of these artists is often recognizable, though their creators' names remain unknown--until now. With Seen Unknown, Tseng unifies the diverse range of work by some of his favorite artists, putting it all in once place for readers to enjoy.
