Gothic Art Now by Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Brom

fictionallybooked's review

4.0

I’m a big fan of the arts, thou a have no real talent myself. I guess that’s the beauty of it. I have no artistic talent and always wonder in amazement how they could possible do that. Some of the images that appear in this book I have seen before and had no idea that they were considered gothic art as such. The wonders of art!

The book is divided in to a range of different section, but overall it is still classified as gothic art. The sections are femmes fatales, men in black, gothic elegance, industrial goth, lurking horror, dark fantasy, creepy creations and grim comics.

Some of my favourites are:
