Descrição
What is America? Its Monopoly and Mickey Mouse, but also Sinatra and Fred Astaire. Its the Declaration of Independence, but its also Barbie and Playboy, Winslow Homer and Rudi Gernreichs topless bathing suit. This juxtaposition of images reflects Americas unique eclecticism, and the unprecedented influence that the images of Americas pop culture have had on the world. This book works as a great treasury of Americana, and as a mischievously enjoyable observation on all things truly American. Fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger and famous adman George Lois have crafted an enlightening book, searching American history to find over 350 people, symbols, and things of import. Their iconic and iconoclastic choices are entertainingly presented through surprising visual juxtapositions. Inspired by Tommy Hilfigers passion for Americana and George Lois wit, Iconic America dramatizes the national ethos, and makes us think about who we are and what we stand for, with humor and charm.
