This book offers an intimate look at Mark Ryden's creative process, from paintings and drawings to porcelain sculptures and installations. For over two decades, he has conjured a bestiary of fantastical beings infused with nostalgia and memory. Inspired by mid-century Rushton toys and rendered with the precision of an old master, these creatures blur the boundaries between innocence and eeriness.
More than 40 works are featured, including iconic figures like the Snow Yak and his reimagined California bear, alongside new paintings created for the 2020 Shanghai exhibition, Nocturnal Ballads, organized by Perrotin in collaboration with Kasmin.
