Summary: Eerily Whimsical
Review: I just love Michael Sowa's work! It is so hard to find in the US, but I finally got a hold of a copy of Sowa's Ark. My only complaint is that it is too short! 71 Pages is just not enough! His work is eerily whimsical, and I just love wondering about the thought that must go into each piece. The quote from Fortean Times in on the front inside cover: "Buy This book and upgrade your imagination", is perfect, his work opens your mind and makes you smile! I wish there were more books with his works more readily available to the US, but if you can get your hands on this one, grab it!

Summary: Funny and Charming
Review: Like some kind of low brow Mark Tansey, Sowa creates images that truly stop you in your cerebral tracks with their weight and mystery. And he does this while being damn funny. The tragic and sometimes amusing conflicts between the human world and the natural world have never been so well shown. A coffee table art book I actually pick up and look at, it's far more relevant than it seems at first glance. Buy it now and give it to someone you would like to see with a smile on their face.

Summary: Wildly amusing imagery
Review: Michael Sowa's book was introduced to me as a must to read after someone saw my own work, and I would say the same to you if you are thinking of buying this book. If you like funny, amuzing and often surreal imagery then you'll love Sowas work. Some of the pictures are quite profound and make you think beyond what you see. They have a dream like quality in many cases. Some pleasant and others ... well... it's hard to describe...... best discover for yourself...

Summary: A fabulous artist!
Review: What can one say about Michael Sowa? His painting is superb nad his sense of humor and fun is also "to die for." He is a master, and I just love him......If you ever see his greeting cards for sale, you'll know what I mean. But to have the paintings in a book is even better.
