內容簡介
內容簡介 Maike Biederstaedt 以 Creatures of the Deep 《深海生物》和 What’s in the Egg《雞蛋裡的東西》 擠身傑出紙藝藝術家之列,現在再推出知識類的天氣立體書,讓讀者近距離觀察貨船在波濤洶湧的巨浪中載浮載沉,看龍捲風窮追不捨地追著車子跑,好似要將車子吞沒;看傾盆大暴雨,像高樓大廈聳立在農舍間,而彩虹就在後方呢!還要看沙漠中兩尊大仙人掌矗立著,和雪花在雪地中跳躍綻放。 每一頁皆有對天氣的詳實敘述,並以氣候變遷對人類影響發人深省的評論畫下句點。這是一本奇妙的天氣介紹書,也是值得收藏家們珍藏的藝術之作。 From raucous stormy seas to a welcomingly vivid rainbow, weather's most exciting moments come to brilliant life in this fantastic new pop-up book. In her hugely successful books Creatures of the Deep and What's in the Egg, as well as her enormously popular series of greeting cards for the Museum of Modern Art, Maike Biederstaedt has established herself as one of the preeminent paper artists working today. Now Biederstaedt takes book engineering to new heights as she immerses readers in five electrifying weather scenarios. As each spread unfolds, a meticulously designed landscape emerges--a freighter balances like a nutshell between high waves in the sea; a tornado takes terrifying aim at a truck trying to outrun it; a rain-spewing storm cloud towers like a skyscraper over a farm house. Nature's delicate beauty emerges in the intricate shapes of a snowflake and in the luminous arc of a rainbow. Each page features an informative description of its weather event and the book closes with sobering commentary on the effects of climate change. A wondrous introduction to weather for budding climatologists, this is also an artistic tour de force that collectors will treasure.
