Profusely illustrated with both color and black-and-white images. "Dalek, aka James Marshall, is one of the most exciting artists to emerge from the burgeoning Brooklyn art scene in a long while. This 30 something, artist received a BFA at the art institute of Chicago in 1995, but it seems he takes as much inspiration from street art, graffiti culture and television as he does from his formal education. In his diverse career that spans over a decade Dalek has worked as an assistant to Takashi Murakami, studied art and biology, and exhibited widely. His artwork has been shown at London's Apart Gallery, A life in New York, and The Museum of Contemporary Art in Washington DC, to name just a few. Nickel Plated Angels is a comprehensive collection Dalek's drawings, illustrations, graffiti and photographs. It's a stunning first monograph that offers the reader a very personal journey into Dalek's strange world, a challenging place where the Space Monkey reigns supreme. VG: Exlibrary book. Stamp on front free end page. Stamp, sticker, and due date card on back pasted end page.
