Review: Contemporary Krampus - A Modern Look at an Ancient Legend Curated by Mike Drake

Contemporary Krampus : A Modern Look at an Ancient Legend Curated by Mike Drake. Mike gathered over 50+ artists to have them create their own Krampus. Mike has been interested in Krampus since 1997 when he came across a Juxtapoz magazine. Contemporary Krampus is 118+ pages on glossy heavy stock paper. This is a Soft Cover Book and measures 8.5" x 11".
 
The text inside can be a bit hard to read since you have to make sure you open the book wide enough to read the text on the inner edges. That's the one complaint. Other than that we enjoyed reading it and looking at all the artwork inside.
