Praised by critics and teachers alike for more than 40 years, Burne Hogarth’s Dynamic Anatomy is recognized world wide as the classic, indispensable text on artistic anatomy. Now revised, expanded, and completely redesigned with 75 never-before-published drawings from the Hogarth archives and 24 pages of recent subject material, this award-winning reference explores the expressive structure of the human form from the artist’s viewpoint.

The 400 remarkable illustrations provide an explanation for the anatomical details of female and male figures in motion and at rest, all the time stressing the human form in space. Meticulous diagrams and fascinating action studies read about the rhythmic relationship of muscles and their effect upon surface forms. The captivating text is further enhanced by the magnificent figure drawings of such masters as Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Rodin, Picasso, and other great artists.

Dynamic Anatomy presents a comprehensive, detailed study of the human figure as artistic anatomy. This time-honored book goes a ways beyond the factual elements of anatomy, providing generations of recent artists with the tools they want to make the human figure come alive on paper.
