Walton Ford: Pancha Tantra - Reviews
"L'artiste y interroge, par le truchement de nos amies les bêtes, le monde des hommes, pas toujours "humain". Il y compose une satire sociale où les relations de pouvoir, la cruauté et l'absurdité sont stigmatisées. Mais les clés d'interprétation ne sont jamais livrées, plutôt évoquées, dans cet ouvrage de grand format à feuilleter avec jubilation."L'Oeil, ParisFrance |
|
"Some 150 images from Ford's bestiary have been reproduced in this magnificent oversize tome, which takes its title from an ancient Indian book of animal folktales."Martha Stewart Living Magazine, New YorkUnited States |
|
"I have always loved TASCHEN's books, but Pancha Tantra is my favorite yet...I really admire (Ford's) work for its naturalist style and complex narratives - it is truly a breath of fresh air and an inspiration. As soon as my apartment is set up, this book will be displayed proudly in the center of my living room for guests to leaf through."Kevin Sharkey on MarthaStewart.com, New York CityUnited States |

"Pancha Tantra, das sind indische Tierfabeln, die es in sich haben. Die Drucke zeigen nur scheinbar das Paradies. Es enthüllt sich eine morbide Natur, Philosophisch und tiefgründig."Myself, MünchenGermany |
|
"TASCHEN has just introduced a collection of Walton Ford's "beastial tableaux" in this beautiful new hardcover edition."Katie-d-i-d.com, SacramentoUnited States |
|
"Hidden in every picture is a suggestion of something sinister or carnal going on, a subtle way to suggest that inside you lurks a bit of a beast. Well, we're all animals after all."Men’s Health, LondonUnited Kingdom |
|
"And the best part is... This is the first time Ford's work has been available in book form since 2002 (or the first to not cost $1,800, if you count an earlier limited edition of Pancha Tantra)."Men.style.com, New YorkUnited States |
|
"Walton Ford's beautiful book is full of large scale water colors, depicting the animal kingdom like you have never dared imagined it. The ultimate coffee table book, it is sure to inspire (lively) conversation. Consider yourself warned."HomeBySunset.com, Menlo ParkUnited States |
|
"I am currently obsessed with the Walton Ford's Pancha Tantra book and its "meticulous depictions of the wild and mysterious animals." It is the ultimate coffee-table book, and as soon as I'm done with my apartment renovations it will be my first big splurge!"MarthaStewart.com, New YorkUnited States |
