The Strange Plants Collector's Edition includes the award-winning
Strange Plants, Strange Plants II, and is a celebration of plants in contemporary art. The two books
feature the work of 55 artists—from oozing paintings of rotting cacti
to eerie, mesmeric photos of the leafy kudzu vine—and discusses the role
plants play in the artists’ personal lives. Each artist’s work is accompanied by an insightful article or interview
that delves deeper into the relationships between plants and people.
Designed by Folch Studio, an award-winning design
house in Barcelona, which also developed Apartamento magazine, the Collector's Edition was printed in a limited run and will not
be printed again. Lucky for us we managed to get ourselves a copy before it sold out.
