Book Reviews of Tiki Art Two: The Second Coming of a New Art God

Book Review: Tiki Art Two a success!
Summary: 5 Stars

For those of you who enjoyed "Tiki Art Now!", this redux book by Otto Von Stroheim is an impressive, if not better performance of art, than his first book. "Tiki Art Two" is different from "Tiki Art Now" in that it is set up in chapters of various artists, showing multiple pages of works by each one.

The foreward by Jeffrey Vallance gives a background to the Polynesian Pop culture and to where its roots can be traced. Following, the introduction by Otto Von Stroheim helps explain the origins of the Tiki Art genre and how it is a fixed art form of American Folklore.

The artwork itself is as spectacular as it was in the first book, and yet in my opinion, seems to be more targeted at the "tiki bar" style of art that most of us, who are not experts in the tiki art form, know and love of the Tiki Style.

Summary of Tiki Art Two: The Second Coming of a New Art God

The sequel to Tiki Art Now! from Otto von Stroheim's second curated Tiki art show at The Shooting Gallery. This is a must-have for Tiki-philes, contemporary art and art-book collectors, students of art history and those throwing the infamous Martha Stewart Tiki Luau. For this exhibit, I chose a handful of artists whose work I not only enjoy but highly respect as excellent examples of the movement. Some of the artists are well known, integral figures within the Tiki movement (Bosko, Crazy Al, Tiki, Ony, etc.), while some of them may not necessarily be associated with Tiki art but have been uniquely inspired to create beautiful Polynesian Pop pieces (Isabel Samaras, Ewik, Niagara, etc).
