Uno Kudo - a modern day art collective
from the Uno Kudo website...
Dear Human,
There wasn’t a doubt: there would be an Uno Kudo Vol. 2. The first book was a best seller on the anthology list and raised a nice amount of money for a worthy charity. But following the first book, a strange thing happened. The writers and artists who were included began to talk. They picked up telephones and said, “Oh hi, hello—so strange that we’ve never hung out before.” They bounced emails back and forth—“Wanna help me drink this vat of Pinot Noir?” Parties sprung up. Snail mail popped into mailboxes: birthday cards, odd little handwritten notes. These people had all fallen in love with each other. They started talking. Collaborating. Plotting. Devising. They took vacations together. It was baffling. This kinda' thing wasn’t supposed to happen anymore.
An art collective. A modern day art collective.
Really?
Yup. It spans the U.S.A. and it’s spreading … inching out daily. Like the Blob … Seattle, Los Angeles, San Diego, Portland, Boulder, Brooklyn, Upstate New York, Chicago … that Johnny Cash song, I’ve been everywhere man … Sure! Sea to shining sea. Europe too. Pins on the map in Japan, South America, anywhere there’s a somebody leaving a light on. We’d like to come to your town—absorb you just like the Blob did. We’re friendly though. We’ll slather you in neon DayGlo paint and ... well, lots of things will happen.
There’s a place for you here in Uno Kudo. Read. Look. Write. Create. Speak. Buy me a drink. I’ll buy you a drink. We’ll get naked and things will glow with an impossible hum—reverberating with a tinge of welcome danger.
Love,
The Editors

“NAKED” BOOK TO BENEFIT PERSECUTED WRITERS
Uno Kudo, a collective of artists and writers from across the globe, is proud to announce the release of Volume 2: Naked, on November 20 2012.
The book will explore the theme of “being naked” through a unique blend of short stories, poems and artwork that reflect highly talented artists’ interpretations of the word.
Following the successful Uno Kudo Volume 1: Ripped (a best-seller on Amazon’s anthology chart), Volume 2: Naked features submissions from both award-winning and fresh new writers and artists from all over the world. Editor in Chief Aaron Dietz (author of Super and Reserved for Emperors) led a panel of judges that chose from hundreds of entertaining, heartwarming, dramatic and funny entries to bring you the very best.
With an extremely wide range of subject material, award-winning designer Erin McParland once again pairs each story and poem with amazing and unique artwork. The result is sometimes haunting, sometimes gritty, and sometimes risque but always beautiful.
Hitting every emotion, Uno Kudo Volume 2: Naked is a book that will create a buzz on any coffee table. Featuring stories by Chuck Howe, Bud Smith (author of Or Something Like That) and more; poems by Raven Kane, Heather Dorn and more; and art by Kent Williams, Glenn Arthur, Leland Bobbe, and more; Uno Kudo is a must have look into the future of art and literature.
The writers and artists of Uno Kudo are passionate about supporting their fellow artists from around the world. They are pleased to announce that all profits from Volume 2: Naked will be donated to the PEN Action Center, a non-profit organization with 144 chapters in 101 countries. PEN’s Freedom to Write program defends the rights of writers, bloggers and artists who face persecution, violence and even arrest for expressing their ideas.
