Surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding have generated some of the most visually compelling and influential graphics of the last thirty years. With more than 400 color illustrations, BOARD is the first comprehensive survey of the best of board sports graphics, from rare, classic archival material to the latest trends. Top artists and art directors explain the complex subcultures that have given rise to this stunning array of imagery, and examine the close links between board sports and music, design, and fashion. Filled with artwork that is anarchic, funny, brutal, and beautiful, BOARD is a unique document of the visual expression of youth culture at its most rebellious.
