Big news for all fans of pop culture, cosplay, and pets: Pets Rock from teNeues is back!
Pets Rock - A fusion of pets and pop culture. The artworks blend comic-con and the global celebrity phenomenon with our fascination with anthropomorphising pets, blurring the line between animals and humans. In the Pets Rock world, animal antics meld with human hubris, where nothing is too serious and no one is quite what they seem.
After two best-selling editions of the Pets Rock franchise, this new volume presents the latest portraits from the Pets Rock cosmos, all of which are created by photographing the animals in their familiar environment. In the species-appropriate post-production, the models are digitally transformed into hip-hop greats, film divas, and historic personalities. We meet a guinea pig who becomes a Roman Emperor, a cat in a movie star pose, and an astronaut dog en route to the first moon landing. If this book does not make you smile, we don't know how to help you! Pets Rock rocks!
The Pop Culture World of Pets Rock - Where Pets meet Celebrity.
The companion book to the international phenomenon, Pets Rock. The perfect humour gift for any animal lover and celebrity fan.
Launched in 2008, the award-winning brand Pets Rock is a striking play on our enduring fascination with pets and the cult of celebrity. The old adage that 'People look like their pets' led to the creation of characters that brought this saying to life. Its creators, Mark and Kate Polyblank, are a London-based photography and design partnership. The characters are created by photographing pets, then drawing every other part of the image. That's everything else - hair, clothes, make-up, props. It's all drawn by hand to create a unique work of art.
The Pets Rock brand is taking its name literally as its unique humour and style spread around the globe, where they have found fans barking mad for these furry friends. With over 80 characters in the Pets Rock world and many more waiting to be let off the leash, you're never far from one of our pop culture pets.
SELLING POINTS:
- The companion book to the international phenomenon, Pets Rock.
- The perfect humour gift for any animal lover and celebrity fan.
