  A collection of stunning original pieces of art - in full colour throughout - inspired by the hugely successful X-Files TV show. An innovative visual publication, The Art of The X-Files presents original art by one hundred emerging and established artists from different disciplines and media. This unique addition to The X-Files list is a celebratory compilation of original artwork created especially for the book, to show the influence The X-Files has had on the contributing artists. The X-Files is the television phenomenon of the nineties. Over eight million viewers tune in to this highly addictive show, which sees the electric pairing of David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI detectives Mulder and Scully investigating strange cases of the paranormal. The artists invited to participate in the book include painters, photographers, animators, graphic designers in print and digital media. They have created work that reflects their unique and personal inspiration from The X-Files: as a cultural phenomenon, as a new chapter in television history and as an engrossing cosmic mystery. This is a high profile project which will attract considerable media interest.
