Following on from the top selling Our Tattoos: The Best Tattoos From the World's Best Artists - Volumes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, this collected edition is another full colour, stylish and jam-packed 92 pages of the world's best and most interesting tattoo artwork. Tattooing is ancient. It may not be the oldest form of art in the world, but it has been commonplace in virtually all the cultures of the world for thousands of years. Mysticism, strength, pride and family have always been connected to this strange act of marking the body. So it's no surprise that at this time of technological growth, tattooing is once again something people cherish, perhaps more than ever. It's as if we crave something that is ours, manmade and most importantly something that cannot be taken from us. The tattooer is no longer the old salt or outsider, essentially now anyone can pick up a machine and learn. There is no need to dwell on the obvious negatives of this, instead let's celebrate that for the first time in history men and women with great artistic skill are now pushing tattooing to new realms. Furthermore the client is no longer a sailor, biker or criminal but a genuine collector of art and memories.Has something been lost? Perhaps, but has a new world of fantastic art and culture opened up? Most definitely!
