Plasticland [Kozik, Frank, Kozik, Frank] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Plasticland Review: Photos only. Not much else. Certainly no secrets. - There was one part of the description that sold this book to me: "Kozik shares all the secrets of this arcane and cutting-edge art movement in Plasticland". That led me to expect some text about Kozik's process. Some short essay from Kozik himself, perhaps. Unfortunately, there's nothing of the sort in this book. Just photos of vinyl toys and a couple graphic designs. No secrets shared here; there are dozens of designer-vinyl-oriented web sites that offer almost as much. I feel misled. If I wanted only photos of toys, I could have downloaded them. I will be returning this book because the description was so misleading. Very underwhelming compared to other Dark Horse publications I own. If you want photos of Kozik toys, this is for you. If you want to know about the secrets of this "art movement" you'd better look elsewhere. Review: Good book - Book cover was a little sticky, but still a great book

Its Kozik!
Naughty plastic characters smoking. Hubby prefers older Kozik stuff (he's such a hipster) but daughter and I enjoy the images, The book it a valued addition to our art book collection.
