Synopsis

According to global child prodigy expert Dr. Joanne Ruthsatz, prodigies occur only 1 in 5-10 million of the population. Art prodigies are the rarest, and male art prodigies are the rarest of all. The story and art of Josh Tiessen, the only known male art prodigy in North America, are presented for the first time in this 200-page hardcover coffee table monograph. From his little-known beginning narrowly escaping a prenatal abduction in Russia, through his childhood and teen years, the reader is drawn in by the fascinating narrative of this rare gift to the art world. Divided into developmental stages, selected works from Tiessen's collection of upwards to ninety originals sold to date (including a few still available for sale) are showcased alongside his own writings, which often reflect his deep spiritual roots. Celebrating the emerging artist's inaugural ten years, from his first public exhibition at eleven to his 21st birthday, the book is both an intriguing time capsule and a beautiful keepsake filled with over 60 full-colour original works of art. Designed and laid out by Tiessen, the book itself is a lovely piece of art, available in a Gallery Edition and a foil-embossed signed limited Collector's Edition (SOLD OUT), which comes with an original sketch of a painting from the book.

A propos du livre

À propos de la deuxième de couverture

"As a founding Charter member of the International Guild of Realism (IGOR), I first met Josh in 2013 at our 8th Annual Juried Exhibition in Arizona. I was totally amazed that he was only 17, considering the quality of his juried painting (Shipwrecked Treasure, pictured above). He has since been juried into every IGOR exhibition and has won numerous awards including "Creative Achievement Award" at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston and "Best Wildlife Award" at Gallery 1261 in Denver. I would definitely consider Josh to be at the genius level in fine art especially considering his age. His work is not only technically brilliant but also extremely creative in terms of composition and mature color palette. He is still the youngest juried IGOR member by far, and we look forward to his creative paintings in our upcoming international exhibitions. Josh Tiessen has the potential to be one of the best in the contemporary realism art scene."
