Description from the seller

Hello
Step into the extraordinary mind of one of the 20th century’s most unique creative forces. This is a stunning First Edition copy of "The Essential Paul Laffoley: Works from the Boston Visionary Cell," published in 2016 by the prestigious University of Chicago Press.
Paul Laffoley (1935–2015) was not just an artist; he was an architect, a philosopher, and a mystic. His work consists of incredibly dense, large-scale "thought-form" paintings—complex mandalas that blend occult symbolism, science fiction, architecture, and advanced mathematics.
Why this book is a must-have:
Comprehensive Monograph: The most definitive collection of Laffoley’s work ever published, featuring high-quality, full-color plates of his most famous "diagram paintings" (including The World Self, The Kali-Yuga, and his interpretations of Dante’s Inferno).
First Edition: Highly collectible 2016 hardcover edition (First Printing).
Exceptional Design: A large-format clothbound book with a striking dust jacket that mirrors the intricate geometry of Laffoley’s art.
Academic Rigor: Edited by Douglas Walla, with deep insights into the "Boston Visionary Cell"—the studio-laboratory where these masterpieces were conceived.
