Dune: Part 2 finally hit the big screen yesterday, and we've discovered a treat for anyone looking to delve deeper into Dune art and design concepts. To coincide with the release, Insight Editions has launched a beautiful behind-the-scenes book written by producer Tanya Lapointe.

The Art and Soul of Dune: Part Two is filled with concept art, Dune design details and  production photographs. The visually impressive book explores the scope of the artistic vision for the second installment in Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s science fiction classic and provides insight into environmental designs, elaborate Dune costume concepts and Dune VFX.
