Body Type is an eye-opening look into the amazingly creative ways that tattoo artists are utilizing typography. Whereas the majority of tattoo art uses images to convey messages; here the message actually is the image. Twenty-six alphabetical characters might not seem like much to work with; but a look through these photographs reveals the contrary. Here are truly unique social commentaries; expressions of love; hilarious examples of biting satire; plus some mottos; intricate logotypes; deeply personal song lyrics; and; of course; those tattoos that exist for one reason only: to shock the hell out of you. The crisp photographs are accompanied by an insightful commentary from renowned graphic designer and typographer Ina Saltz; plus consistently surprising and heartfelt explanations from the tattooed.

Demidov is one of the few. Far too many people hijacked the System for political or personal reasons: promoting their own theories; or; as in the case of Communist Russia; distorted Stanislavsky in order to conform to the collectivist ideology. The Communists denied sense and emotion memory; viewing it as too subjective and thus too individualistic for their socialist agenda. American academia followed blindly along. The fact; however; is that Stanislavsky NEVER abandoned sense-emotion memory; rather; he incorporated it into action analysis (physical action) as the next step in the creative process. Demidov understood this: his book is a testament to the fundamental structure of Stanislavskys ideas. To truly grasp Stanislavskys method of training one needs to read this book; along with Strasberg AND Adler. Yes -- both had it right; and both engaged in silly feuds. If you combine Strasberg and Adler; you come up with Demidov. Yes; the book is expensive; and yes; its long; but its worth it if one wants to understand acting.
