You're better off with a tattoo magazine. November 11, 2002 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This coffee table book is more suited to photography enthusiasts than tattoo enthusiasts. There are very few pictures of work that is worthy of a picture book. There's even less information than outstanding artwork. For $..., you'd be much better off getting a couple subscriptions to magazines, such as Skin & Ink and International Tattoo Art.
Coffee Table Tattoo Books Do Exist August 11, 2001 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you enjoy formally-styled, oversize art books, and you like tattoos, you may want to add this to the coffee table in your living room. Gregor von Glinski, the photographer, travelled the world, seeking modern day tattooists, catching some of the oldsters and plenty of the up-and-coming artists as well. Rounding out the group of plates are models bearing the artists' favorites pieces. The featured tattooists include practitioners from Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, England, France, Holland, and many more. If you can't hit all the international conventions, this book can help you explore the world tattoo scene.
Not sure what to make of this book April 22, 2001 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well, there was some good pictures, but a lot of useless ones as well. Also, the was a few blank pages mixed in throughout. A decent book, for a cheaper price
NOT WORTH A SECOND LOOK. March 4, 2001 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
When I spend $40 on a book, I should be compelled to pick it up more than once. Unfortunately that was not the case with this book. The photos were taken of average to below average subject matter, you can see more interesting tattoos in a $5 tattoo magazine.
Feeds the masses November 2, 2000 This book should be in the photography section. A lot of the tattoos in this book weren't even that great and there was little substance and little information. I don't even know quite why they would take pictures of a couple of the tattoos I saw in there, let alone make a book with them, ( a few of them, that is ). The photography was very nicely done however. It would be a nice coffee table book that would entertain visitors. But for anyone who knows about tattoos and tattooing this book (is pretty bland).
