"Spike Lee is one of the great movie stylists of his time--or any time. Not only do his movies have an inimitable look, but Lee has a natural sense for fashion, never mind true skill as commercial ad man. This book does justice to Lee's inimitable visual style. It's a beaut." -- Esquire, "Technically, SPIKE is a film-by-film study of the director's career. But it's hardly stuffy. It's a visual joy with choice comments from the man himself."- The New York Times, "Spike Lee's first career-spanning book is a visual celebration of his life and career to date."-- Fast Company, "He's a voice of reason, an advocate, a pioneer, and above all, a storyteller, whether with his motion pictures, commercials, music videos, or his book, SPIKE .

The time is right for this title: Spike Lee's popularity and critical acclaim are at an all-time high. Lee won an Academy Award for his recent film Blackkklansman , and he is a powerful voice for fighting against racism and an outspoken supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement. His films are studied in universities around the world, and his influence has left its mark on a generation of artists, filmmakers, and musicians., A career-spanning monograph, SPIKE is a visual celebration of acclaimed filmmaker Spike Lee's life and work to date. Spike Lee is a world-renowned, Academy Award-winning filmmaker, a cultural icon, and one of the most prominent voices on race and racism for more than three decades. His prolific career has included over 35 films, including his directorial debut She's Gotta Have It (1986), his seminal masterpiece Do the Right Thing (1989), and his Oscar-winning film BlacKkKlansman (2018). Spike Lee's provocative feature films, documentaries, commercials, and music videos have shone the spotlight on significant stories and have made an indelible mark in both cinematic history and in contemporary society.

Also included here are his beloved commercials with Michael Jordan for Nike, which helped launch the billion-dollar Jordan brand product empire, as well as his music videos with Prince and Michael Jackson.

STRIKING DESIGN: Featuring gold foil deboss on a vibrant fuchsia front cover, SPIKE boasts a bold and beautiful, eye-catching design.
