Knjiga čarobnjaka: Povijest umjetnosti iluzionizma

Olaf Benzinger

An excellent book... The author defines illusionism in an argumentative manner as an art equal to all other artistic expressions.

"The Wizard's Book" takes us on an exciting journey through the history of illusionism. Benzinger reveals to us in a comprehensible way what the enchanting, secretive and seemingly mystical in the art of illusion rests on, and why a superb illusionist work is much more than just a trick. Thanks to this book, for the first time we have the opportunity to read something about the key facts, the most important names and the most famous illusionist shows, and about the connections between illusionist and other arts.

It's a path from ancient Egypt and ancient ancient magicians like Dedi, through medieval tricksters and circus performers, to today's superstars like David Copperfield, Lance Burton or Siegfried & Roy.
