Disney's Photomosaics Hardcover - 1998

From the publisher

Photomosaics are everywhere. From national magazine covers to MasterCard "TM" ads, these brilliantly engineered collages are the wave of art's future. And now the creative genius behind this trend offers a stunning new look for some familiar faces.

Photomosaics are colorful pictures formed from a series of smaller images, called tiles. Subtly blended together, these tiles form larger images that transcend the boundaries of each tile. A graduate of MIT's prestigious Media Lab, Robert Silvers is the creator of the software that produces these remarkable mosaics, and his artwork is admired throughout the world. Recently, Silvers has created commissioned photomosaic portraits of such prominent figures as Al Gore and Bill Gates. Now he's given timeless Disney characters a new spin, and the effect is truly mesmerizing. From Mickey Mouse to The Lion King, from Pinocchio to Toy Story, familiar and beloved icons are magically reborn in this vivid compilation of thousands of images. Viewed up close, Disney's Photomosaics explodes with color and extraordinary detail; seen from a distance they form a strikingly stunning picture. Best of all, they can be appreciated with the naked eye.
