Alejandro Jodorowsky. Art Sin Fin

Unfiltered access to Alejandro Jodorowsky’s creative world

Step inside the kaleidoscopic imagination of Alejandro Jodorowsky with his own exploration of his own work – the most expansive to date. This monograph is both an art object and a manifesto, one that Alejandro Jodorowsky has conceived from 96 years of archival material to encapsulate his daring and inexhaustible spirit.

The first volume is a visual feast. The artist has personal chosen and laid-out foldout pages, film stills, performance shots, collages, drawings, and rare photos from his archive. It captures the sheer breadth of his work across cinema, theater, comics, and the art of healing. Following a visual dynamic from image to image, these many works, all selected one by one across films and thousands of pages of comics and archive, create a new narrative – a sensorial one.

The second volume shifts from imagery to voice, collecting Jodorowsky’s own reflections and confessions on each image, as a sort of voice-over for the film he has edited – the book in itself. In Jodorowsky's singular written style – philosophical, outrageous, unbridled, and deeply human – he brings every image somewhere else, activating it to new meaning. Revealing a personal worldview where creation is inseparable from transformation.

Together, these two volumes are complementary elements of a unique chronicle. A liberating portal into the world of a restless creator who blurs the lines between cinema, poetry, performance, mysticism, and life itself. Full of knowledge and imagination, lavish yet intimate, this stunning publication is both a retrospective and a new work by an artist who dances beyond the edges of convention.

Designed in an exclusive collaboration with M/M Paris, the book includes a bespoke plexiglass box that can be configured as a bookstand. Built from two interlocking pyramids of clear and dark plexiglass, the sculptural box set evokes some of Jodorowsky’s recurring motifs, such as the Incal Light and the Incal Dark, symbolizing opposing forces. At the core of M/M’s graphic interpretation are two bespoke typefaces: the first a modular reinterpretation of medieval church stone carved letters (a voice from the past), and the second inspired by Jodorowsky's science-fiction works (a molecular alphabet drawn from an imagined future).


Collector’s Edition (No. 201–1,000), each copy signed by Alejandro Jodorowsky in volume 1 on a sheet within the book’s sequence of pages at locations selected by chance.
