The third book in the series curated by George Lucas, Star Wars Art: Illustration collects the best of the art from the products that expanded the Star Wars universe into a multimedia phenomenon.
Introduction by Steven Heller Foreword by Howard Roffman The instant and massive success of
Star Wars took Lucasfilm by surprise, but in 1978, an industry unto itself was born, consisting of books, trading cards, magazines, video games, and merchandise. The art created for these projects continues to expand the limits and celebrate the iconography of the
Star Wars galaxy.

Star Wars Art: Illustration explores the wide range of styles that illustrators have brought to bear on a galaxy far, far away . . .
