The first two volumes chronicling the unique art and design of Roger Dean met with huge critical and popular success. Views (1975) went straight to number one in the Sunday Times bestseller list and went on to sell over a million copies. Magnetic Storm (1984) enjoyed similar success, selling over 650.000 copies. Both titles will be available in re-print editions in 2009 Dragon's Dream completes the Dean trilogy. A more ambitious work than its predecessors, it celebrates Roger's work from the last 20 year. Conceived as a panoramic dreamscape, it encompasses album covers, paintings, and stage design: logos and icons produced for computer game companies (such as Psygnosi, Bullet Proof Software, and Blue Planet Software); and concepts and visuals for movies. The picture is completet by Roger's visionary concepts for architectural projects that address the very topical issue of sustainability in the 21st century. Roger Dean is an internationally acclaimed artist and designer whose evocative and visionary images created a whole new genre. Made popular through the medium of album covers and posters his work has sold in excess of 100 million copies worldwide. He became widely known in the 1970s for his album cover designs for YES - inluding the classic logo now in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. He also had five designs in the top 20 best album covers, as voted by readers of Rolling Stone. In 2003, the same magazine voted his Tales from Topographic Oceans the best album cover of all time.
