That's a huge book!

I understand that there are other artists, aside from Usugrow, from this show---did the book contained mostly Usugrow art?

That's what she, wait...
You are correct.
The show was curated by Usugrow Feat / USUGROW, MOZYSKEY, TOSHIKAZU NOZAKA, BENE, JUN KANEKO.
The book was evenly split featuring each artist and their works.
I'd highly recommend picking up a copy if you can.

Should be $300 framed.
Most of the art w/ a silver stamp on bottom right denotes a print and not an original.

They were a bit bigger than 8.5x11.
See above for pricing.
Best bet would be to contact the gallery.

Wait so it was a print, I knew 300 would be cheap for original artwork. Is there any word on how large the print edition is ?

All in all 300 for a print is a bit steep, but depending on the run it may make more sense esp. with it being framed.

Man I would love an original, but that is out of my league. Was there a image of the dog print in the book ?

I read the description but just to clarify...Is this book similar to the other Usugrow. i.e tons of amazing images and no written text?

Yes. Don't have the book w/ me but I believe it's divided into 5 sections featuring each artist and their works.

yes...toshikazu's stuff is awesome. i wish he was there when i stopped by...and seeing the artwork makes you look at odoron in a whole different light. so much so that i might have to get one. usugrow was kind of shocked when talked about toys (for all of 5 minutes or less) and he mentioned how toshikazu has a toy out, and i said "oh yes...odoron..." but neither one of us mentioned rebel in or salvation ink. he is thinking about another show here in the US at a much later time but i don't know if i should mention where and when just yet.
