Volume Two:
Christopher Nolan
A Limited Edition
Art Publication.
“Are you watching closely?”
This volume explores the films of Christopher Nolan through the lenses of structure, scale, and obsession. Known for his ambitious narratives and practical approach to spectacle, Nolan’s work challenges how blockbuster cinema can function – both intellectually and emotionally.
Curated by Layered Butter, this volume brings together original artwork and essays that examine Nolan’s recurring themes, formal experimentation, and his influence on contemporary filmmaking, from intimate character studies to world-bending epics.
