Full Title: CONDEMNATION: WHEN MODELING BECOMES ART AND ART IS A SOCIAL DENOUNCE RE-EDITED EDITION
Content and Themes
The publication Condemnation elevates modeling to an art form that confronts the issues facing contemporary society. The book features meticulously crafted dioramas created by leading modeling artists, serving as a visual representation and critique of global issues such as racism, pandemics, climate change, and other forms of social injustice. The visual content is presented with profound respect for the topics discussed, though its sensitive nature marks this as AK Interactive's first publication designated for individuals over 18 years of age.
Application and Value
The book's primary purpose is to inspire and showcase artistic modeling within the context of profound social reflection. It serves as a resource for modelers seeking new forms of expression, as well as for anyone interested in using art to comment on the world around them. The publication aims to remind us of the importance of human rights and the necessity of combating injustices.
Social Aspect
AK Interactive emphasizes its social contribution: a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the first edition of the book was allocated to support the NGO Etiovida, which works towards the reconstruction and development of Ethiopia. This aspect highlights the publication's mission extending beyond a typical modeling release.
