Summary:
Oriane Lassus est autrice de bande dessinée. Au fil de ses livres, elle a développé un langage narratif et graphique très singulier, avec un trait toujours en mouvement refusant les lignes droites et les facilités. En parallèle de la bande dessinée, elle expérimente en permanence : céramique, bidouillages, dessin envahissant tout ce qui passe à porté. Ce livre montre un aperçu de ses explorations automatiques, qui accompagnent en sous-main ou dans les marges son travail de création, quand le stylo erre sans autre but que l'invention. Les petites figures qui émergent de toute part sont comme un laboratoire réjouissant et plein d'humour, source de mille micro-histoires en germe. Ça grouille, ça se rencontre, ça vit dans tous les coins, on a envie d'y farfouiller des heures.

Summary:
Despite Julie Doucet’s renunciation of her comics-centric lifestyle more than five years ago, 365 Days is imbued with the iconic talent and studied aesthetic of her seminal comic book series Dirty Plotte, which catapulted her into being one of the world’s greatest cartoonists. This visual journal, starting in late 2002, is an idiosyncratic collision of her various creative interests, wherein personal narrative, collage, and drawing begin to tell the story of her pursuits into printmaking and beyond, chronicling her maturation as a mid-career artist and her fluid extension into a broader arts community. Now exhibiting internationally, Doucet blurs the boundaries between high art, illustration, craft, and comics: where panel borders once divided pages, collage creeps in; events and doodles merge; recollection and narrative blend with the abstract. The surreal neurosis of her comics has subsided to reveal a more relaxed creativity that is unrestricted by form or definition and is as engaging as ever.

Summary:
On ne présente plus Tomi Ungerer. Les Trois Brigands, le Géant de Zéralda, Pas de baiser pour maman et tant d'autres histoires à succès l'ont hissé depuis longtemps au panthéon des auteurs pour enfants. Ses satires acérées de la société américaine, qui défraient la chronique dans les années 1970, n'ont guère perdu de leur actualité ; ses dessins publicitaires explosifs ont fait date ; ses œuvres érotiques continuent d'évoquer avec ambivalence et délectation la place de la femme dans nos sociétés. Tomi Ungerer est aussi l'affichiste virulent de la lutte contre le sida, le nucléaire, le racisme. Mais il sait être tendre envers ce qui lui est cher: en témoignent ses illustrations de contes et de chansons populaires qui accompagnent l'imaginaire de plus d'un lecteur. A l'occasion de l'ouverture du Musée Tomi Ungerer, Centre international de l'Illustration, cet ouvrage présente pour la première fois une analyse rétrospective de son œuvre. Parmi les huit mille dessins et sculptures, les mille trois cents livres, les archives, les revues, les photographies dont Tomi Ungerer a fait donation à sa ville natale, ce livre propose quelques chemins de traverse dans la production protéiforme de l'artiste.

Summary:
Woodcutter, painter, cosmopolitan and anti-militarist, Belgium-born Masereel (1889-1972) was an extremely popular artist in 1920s Germany. A contemporary of Kathe Kollwitz and George Grosz, his "novels-without-words"--completely composed of woodcuts--have been neglected in the States. Here, 165 striking woodcuts generate the visual narrative of a young man's initiation into the urban milieu. The raw power and diversity of the city's day to day events continually expand his understanding of life's possibilities. The hero's fascination with the city's abundance of art and culture, political debate and industrial glory combine with observations on an equal profusion of poignant social trauma. The protagonist travels to distant lands; this journey of vibrant percipience propels him toward an enlarged comprehension of his role in a world of good and evil, love and tenderness and clashing social interests. Mann's effusive introduction discusses Masereel's life and influences and details the ideas that motivated and enliven this vivid work.
