IDEA Yves Uro Urovision 2nd Edition
Yves Uro Urovision is the first book of the great poster artist of the Ibiza club scene in the 1980's and early 90s.
Yves Uro (1954-1995) is a very rare thing in these hyper-connected times - a world class artist waiting to be discovered. In just over a decade, Uro produced between 300-400 posters for Ku and other clubs and bars on Ibiza. Largely freehand drawn and finished with expert level airbrush and paint techniques, the posters represent an incredible run of sustained creativity. They are the aesthetic of Ibiza nightlife in the eighties. Urovision presents 100 of the most amazing posters into one book - published for the first time. Yves' sister Catherine provides an extensive personal portrait of her brother alongside photographs, letters, ephemera and examples of his extraordinary teenage artworks.
The new edition has extra pictures and posters and an Ibiza travel diary text booklet by Yves' sister Catherine Uro.
Softcover with spot gloss embossing to covers. 32.5 x 23cm. 168 pages.
Second edition of 750.
