So colourful
Such a fun thing to have, especially if you love art! The little leaflet inside tells you more about each artist in a short concise way which is quite nice

Not reaaaaally an oracle - but good inspiration
Very cool item. Really helpful to explore different artists and get a gist of their vibe. Not much of an oracle per se as you will see from pics, the booklet /leaflet give you a quick n humourous bio of the artist while the cards have 3 things that artist would say to you based on *life, *work, *inspiration. I found them thought provoking at least and stimulating curiosity. Can't wait to see what my friend says who got them as a gift 😁

These are high quality cards with very beautiful illustrations and design. They are really fun. I love to use these cards to help with the artist block for inspiration. Great to shuffle and randomly pick out an artist or two and read about their style and artistic influence.

As cartas são muito bonitas e as definições são bem divertidas... Pra quem conhece um pouco de tarot e um pouco de historia da arte consegue perceber que as relaçoes com os artistas foram muito boas...

Adoro questo mazzo! Le carte riportano frasi chiave legate ai più famosi artisti di tutti i tempi, di diverse discipline: pittori, fotografi, architetti....come William Blake, Diane Arbus, Tiziano, Rem Koolhaas....Non mi aspettavo fosse così bello: le frasi riportate in ogni carta sono molto evocative, sono inviti a vivere come hanno fatto i grandi personaggi in esse ritratti. Stra-consigliato, anche come regalo per amanti dell'arte, e non necessariamente di carte oracolo.

Neither a tarot deck nor a tribute to, nor a mockery of, them, this most unusual offering takes on the form thereof to draw and teach lessons from the careers of notable artists from Da Vinci to the present. Rather than citing actual quotables from these artists, Ms. Tylevich synthesizes her own pithy aphorisms consonant with her take on their lives and works . Accompanying these beautiful and beautifully-produced cards is a most interesting booklet in which she gives her précis accounts of the artists and their lives, not as dry encyclopaedia snippets, but in wildly colorful, opinionated, agenda-laden salvos that recall early (Bob) Dylan verse. Although rooted in art history, this is really fully the wonderful and unique work of Ms. Tylevitch, a clearly fascinating artistic intellect whom I should check out further. I was directed to this most unusual objet d'art by the Seville guitarist, author, and artist Paola Hermosín.

Amazing deck of cards, I learned a lot about these artists and arranged "fake tarot" type of readings with friends, quick delivery. I fully recommend this deck.
