Plasticland
By FRANK KOZIK
The man credited with single-handedly reviving the concept of rock posters as an art form, Frank Kozik
was first exposed to the counterculture world of "designer art toys" on a trip to Japan in 1996. His

toy designer. Now considered one of the world's top three underground toy designers, Kozik shares all
the secrets of this arcane and cutting-edge art movement in Plasticland. This deluxe oversized volume,
the first collected work of Kozik's foray into this explosive new phenomenon, offers a fascinating look at
the creation and end result of modern toy design. A dazzling photographic record of all Kozik's production
and custom pieces through early 2006, the book also features his new works in serigraphy and oil
painting.
• Frank Kozik has created works for Nike, BASF, Slim Jim, and MTV. He divides his time between San
Francisco and Tokyo.
• Frank Kozik has been the subject of numerous magazine and newspaper articles, including features in

again. This volume collects the first six-issue series, as well as out-of-print short stories, and an
