Dynamic anatomy by Burne Hogarth ( Book )
23 editions published between 1958 and 2003 in 5 languages and held by 1,354 libraries worldwide
Praised by critics and teachers alike for more than 40 years, Burne Hogarth's Dynamic Anatomy is recognized worldwide as the classic text on artistic anatomy. Now revised, expanded to include 65 never-before-published drawings from the Hogarth archives, and completely redesigned, this award-winning reference explores the expressive structure of the human form specifically from the artist's, rather than the medical anatomist's, point of view. The 350 remarkable illustrations-150 now in full color-explain the proportions and anatomical details of male and female figures in motion and at rest, always stressing the living form in space. Meticulous diagrams and fascinating action studies examine the rhythmic relationship of muscles and their effect upon surface forms. Still other drawings help artists understand foreshortening and how to establish the figure convincingly in deep space. In addition, the text provides a historical overview that includes works by Michelangelo, Picasso, and other master artists. Dynamic Anatomy presents a comprehensive, detailed study of the human figure as artistic anatomy. By emphasizing the relationship of mass to movement, this time-honored book goes far beyond the factual and technical elements of anatomy to give readers the practical methods they need to draw human figures that come alive on paper.

Dynamic figure drawing by Burne Hogarth ( Book )
29 editions published between 1970 and 2008 in 6 languages and held by 1,039 libraries worldwide
'Dynamic figure drawing' is the most essential - and the most difficult - of all skills for the artist to learn. The hardest problem is to visualize the figure in the tremendouse variety of poses which the body takes in action, poses which plunge the various forms of the body into deep space and show them in radical foreshortening. Foreshortening itself is, in fact, the single most challenging aspect of figure drawing. This book introduces the author's own revolutionary system of figure drawing - a system which makes it possible to visualize the forms of the human body from every conceivable point of view as they interlock in deep space. With this system you will be able to draw an incredible variety of poses, actions, and gestures without a model, and with the correct relationships between forms." - back cover.

This latest book in Burne Hogarth's "continuing exploration of the problems and solutions involving the study of the human figure. Though a series of extraordinary drawings and diagrams, Hogarth, famous for his 'dynamic' style, shows how to depict wrinkles, folds and drapery. His basic idea is that an accurate rendering of wrinkle patterns depends on understanding how the actions of a figure provoke any material. Thoroughly covering a subject often overlooked, this book is a landmark in the art instruction field, both for its clear expression of a hitherto difficult-to-explain topic and for its informative and entertaining illustrations." - back cover.
