image Caniglia's latest book is now available.

Caniglia's latest illustrations can be seen in New York Times Bestselling Author Tim Lebbon's new book "The Whisper of Southern Lights". This WW II story explores the grisly chaos and ruin between two of Lebbon's greatest characters, Temple and Gabriel. Caniglia created the cover and 10 interior oil paintings for this book. The painting on the left is one of the paintings that Caniglia calls "God isn't watching or listening...so scream as loud as you want". The book was just released this week and is almost sold out.

If you would like to purchase the book, just CLICK HERE.
Caniglia would also like to thank everyone who came out for the Bemis Center Underground Art show last week in Omaha. The show was a blast and really helped the Bemis Center.

One last note this week. Caniglia wanted me to make the public and his fellow artist aware of a new law that Congress is trying to pass that will greatly damage artist rights everywhere. It is called the Orphan Works Act of 2008 and it will endanger the rights of anyone who creates intellectual property in art, music and theater.

There will be an open forum to oppose the Orphan Works Act of 2008 Tuesday, May 6 6:00 PM at The Society of Illustrators located at 128 East 63rd Street New York, NY 10065 Admission will be free. Please come join us and stand up for Artist rights. If you would like to know more about what Caniglia is talking about you can CLICK HERE on a video that explains the details.


Thank You

image Metamorphosis: Publication of 50 Surreal & Fantastic Artists is now available.
This new hardcover art book presents the work of 50 contemporary Surreal & Fantastic Artists. This cutting edge publication, shows the extremes of both ‘light’ and ‘dark’ themes in art. The two extremes are usually presented separately, but in this art book they belong together under the umbrella of human experience. The book features the work of established artists such as Caniglia, Ernst Fuchs, Alex Grey, Victor Safonkin, Andrew Gonzalez, Martina Hoffmann, Brom and Robert Venosa alongside that of relatively unknown – though extraordinary – artists, this book aims to bring a host of new artists into the public eye. This publication will be the first of a series that will provide exposure for many more artists in future.

ORDER METAMORPHOSIS

image Professor Philip Rubinov Jacobson describes this collection as "a unique book presenting art that dissolves the divisions between mind, body and Spirit. Such divisions that many accept as rigid and absolute begin to melt and change in the flames of the fantastic. Many of these artists feel that they are on a mission, following a vision like a task. They know that a task without vision is drudgery. They know that a vision and a task is the hope of the world."
