CAMOUPEDIA: A Compendium of Research on Art, Architecture and Camouflage by Roy A. Behrens ISBN-10- 00971324468, ISBN- 13 9780971324466 Publication Date 2009 (first edition) Publisher Bobolink Books $27.00 Save $8.00 off List Price $35.00 Product Description Paperbound book. 464 pages: 344 black and white illustrations 6 x 9 inches. Note Includes a preamble by American poet Marvin Bell, in the form of a poem titled “Book of the Dead man (Camouflage).” Book Contents Since the 1890s (in large part in reaction to Darwinian evolution theory), there has been a continuing interest in the survival function of animal coloration, or what is now referred to as “camouflage.” In World War I, French artists organized the first unit exclusively devoted to camouflage in military history. To keep from being targeted by airborne observers (with aerial cameras), they invented clever ways of blending with their surroundings or of breaking up expected shapes to forestall recognition. To the public, the results of the camoufleurs’ efforts resembled Modern abstract art, such as Cubism, Futurism and Vorticism. This was especially true of “dazzle-painted” ship camouflage, the purpose of which was not background matching but confusion and “course deception,” to cause undue uncertainty in a U-boat gunner’s efforts to torpedo Allied vessels from a distance. This unique, unparalleled volume is an encyclopedic sourcebook (organized alphabetically by subject) for camouflage enthusiasts in all fields who want to explore the relations among artists, architects, theatre designers, filmmakers, zoologists, game hunters, chemists, physicists, and optical physiologists -even automotive stylists and golf course planners. The camouflage contributions of scores of people are discussed, including Abbott H. Thayer, Everett L. Warner, Norman Rockwell, Walt Disney, Ellsworth Kelly, Bill Blass, Seymour Reit (originator of Casper the Friendly Ghost), Max Bill, Jon Gnagy (Learn to Draw), Harley Earl, and many others Reviews “Behrens’ archaeological attention to detail and captivating style of writing leads the reader to uncharted territories stretching along the no man’s land between academic disciplines.…[CAMOUPEDIA is] an encyclopedic prsentation of the vast body of [the author’s] finding in camouflage…[it] opens doors to new frontiers in a number of understudied areas of art and military history.” —Laszlo Muntean, Mute Magazine. “Roy Behrens really opens up the whole field of camouflage with scholarly research and writing that is readable. Many,many pictures to make the point and a short history of all those who have moved the field forward—nothing is hidden.” —Richard D. Zakia. Author Until his retirement from teaching in 2018, Emeritus Professor Roy R. Behrens was Professor of Art and Distinguished Scholar at the University of Northern Iowa. He had taught graphic design and design history at that and other schools for more than 45 years. He is the author of seven books, and literally hundreds of articles in journals, books, and magazines, and has appeared in broadcast interviews on NOVA, National Public Radio, Australian Public Radio, BBC, and Iowa Public Television, as well as in documentary films. He has been a nominee for the Smithsonian Institution’s National Design Awards, has received the Iowa Board of Regents Faculty Excellence Award, and has been described in Communication Arts magazine as “one of the most original thinkers in design.” He has lectured throughout the US, and, internationally, in the UK, Canada, and Australia.
