Book description
“Spike Lee is one of the great movie stylists of his time—or any time. Not only do his movies have an inimitable look, but Lee has a natural sense for fashion, never mind true skill as commercial ad man. This book does justice to Lee’s inimitable visual style. It’s a beaut.” —Esquire“SPIKE is a hefty, glossy compendium of the still-unfolding career of one of cinema’s most clarion voices. It’s also an intimate story of family, with siblings on both sides of the camera: Spike as seen through his brother’s lens.” —Associated Press“Technically, SPIKE is a film-by-film study of the director’s career. But it’s hardly stuffy. It’s a visual joy with choice comments from the man himself.”—The New York Times“This should absolutely make the case for why he is one of the most important American filmmakers of this or any age.”—David Lee“For the first time, Spike Lee’s film career is captured in a retrospective coffee table book”—New York Daily News“Spike Lee’s first career-spanning book is a visual celebration of his life and career to date.”—Fast Company“He’s a voice of reason, an advocate, a pioneer, and above all, a storyteller, whether with his motion pictures, commercials, music videos, or his book, SPIKE. Spike Lee has always used his artistry to paint these beautiful pictures of people of color at a time when there were not a lot showcasing the Black experience in America."—V Magazine“This gorgeous coffee-table book offers a behind-the-scenes look at the prolific director’s most iconic work.”—Entertainment Weekly“SPIKE is a big, bold powerhouse.”—The Film Stage“SPIKE features film stills, never-before-seen photographs, and Lee’s own commentary on all of the director’s movies, from his 1986 debut She’s Gotta Have It to 2020’s Da 5 Bloods.”—Rolling Stone jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
