Here are some books that we recently typed hard in the eye. It begins with
Chris Ware and his number 20 Acme Novelty Library, Lint.
is still under control: stroke mad precision cutting is both rigorous and delirious, captivating story ... That said, I think Chris Ware is evolving, his style seems to borrow from "young" authors underground, for better (I think CF and to a lesser extent, Mat Brinkman ...). The adventures of Jason Lint proved absolutely fascinating! Chris Ware is still there and there!
As usual, the object is very neat and coverage Fabric is the most beautiful effect.
Lint, a publication Drawn & Quarterly. € 25.30.
continue with a book that I would never bet before you receive Evolution of a crazy artist , Sophie Crumb . This beautiful book compiles
drawings of the daughter of Robert Crumb and Aline Kominsky-Crumb, since its 26 months until today. As well tell you right now, it's fascinating, absolutely fascinating: we see first a collection of children's drawings, which refers to any art lover raw then we witness the affirmation of a line, and the birth of a personal universe, singular. Inevitably, questions of art by Sophie Crumb's work in terms of his parents and is detected well its dual heritage, but mostly we see how she is an accomplished designer, emancipated from his family influences, it has digested for better wear them to a magic elsewhere. Illustration taken from life, scenes of life, dreamlike fantasy projections of a rich, pop culture, magic, urban nightmares ... everything goes and shows us an incredible talent! A great book, published by Norton. € 29.50.
We also received the book Wry Neck of Caroline Sury , published in the Association in the collection ampersand. This book
generous format (22x29 cm) is happily drawing Caroline Sury, still as dense and dry line and nervous. It follows the wanderings of the author, between editorial work, back pain, tai chi and transcripts of dreams. It's beautiful and incisive at the same time.
Moreover, we host an exhibition of original drawings from this collection. Opening and signing Saturday, October 4 to 18.
Wry Neck, 15 €.

was also much loved song Blood, of Eric Drook , released by Tanib, a beautiful house Lyon edition. This lavish graphic novel combines political criticism and fantasy into a shocking wedding to alchemy. Drook Eric has the talent to speak directly to the power of outrage from readers while offering them the universal fables. A great author!
His books are wordless, and are in line of graphic novels made from woodcuts that were in vogue in the early twentieth century (Lynn Ward, Masereel, Patri ...).
Tanib had already published Flood! last year. And was released in 2007 Echappée Subversion - The Art of Eric Drook rebellious.
Blood song, 24 €.
