"'A CELEBRATION OF AUTOMOTIVE ART' by Gerry Drunell: The Automotive Fine Arts Society and Automobile Quarterly have published the best automotive art book that's ever crossed my desk. Published to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the AFAS annual art exhibition at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Gerry Durnell and the staff of AQ spent eight months assembling and designing 'A Celebration of Automotive Art'. The result is a masterpiece that will become one of the most treasured books in your collection. You'll find yourself carefully removing this 316 page epic from its sturdy slipcase on a regular basis to treat yourself to some of the most beautiful images of classic and racing cars ever produced. Profiles of all 29 active artists of the AFAS are followed by a portfolio of their best work. Artists such as Bill Neale, Jay Koka, Peter Hearsey, Lawrence Braun, Ken Dallison, James Dietz, Charles Maher, Jack Juratovic, Dennis Hoyt are joined by past masters such as Walter Gotschke, John Burgess, Carlo Demand and Peter Helck."--website.
