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:
Once dismissed as a cozy world of teddy bears and fairies, the arrival on the scene of numerous highly original, contemporary, and "cool" graphic artists in recent years has transformed perceptions of children's book illustration. Children now grow up with a more informed and sophisticated visual diet—with cartoons, animated movies, comics, TV, and computer games—consuming a vast range of stylistic approaches, and illustrated books have moved to match the demands of a more discerning market. Equally, artists who in the past may not have considered the children's picture book as an appropriate vehicle for artistic expression are increasingly drawn to the area. This book showcases some of the most interesting work emerging within the genre from a range of cultural backgrounds. It examines trends in use of media—both digital and traditional—and discusses the variety of approaches to subject matter.

Summary:
When tourists become lost, overwhelmed, tired, inspired, bored, enlightened, confronted, hungry, upset or tipsy, when they get cheated or fall in love, perceptions change and surprising associations and experiences come to light. In trying to figure out a city, they are mostly investigating themselves. In this madcap tour through five important international cities, Martin Lorenz and one guest artist per city gave themselves 48 hours to experience their destination, to document it and create a visual diary without the use of computers. The resulting evidence reveals places and situations that could never get mentioned in the guidebooks, offering exhibitionistic glimpses into the personal lives of the reporters and the real energy of each city. This volume covers Frankfurt, Copenhagen, Berlin and New York.

Summary:
Collect Raindrops celebrates the important things: the change of seasons, slowing down the world for a moment so we can actually taste it, looking up at the stars to dream. Artist Nikki McClure’s delicate images exude an optimism that revolves around community, sustenance, parenting, and appreciating both the urban and rural landscape through a visual language that is uniquely her own. Armed with an X-acto knife, McClure painstakingly cuts out her images from a single sheet of black paper, creating a bold language that translates the complex poetry of motherhood, nature, and activism into a simple and endearing picture. The delicate nature of her work draws the eye, as each element has to be connected to the one next to it in some way, creating a fragile network of shapes and lines.

Summary:
This publication is beloved artist and author Maira Kalman's yearlong investigation of democracy and how it works. Energized and inspired by the 2008 elections, on inauguration day Kalman traveled to Washington, D.C., launching a national tour that would take her from a town hall meeting in Newfane, Vermont, to the inner chambers of the Supreme Court. As we follow Kalman's wholly idiosyncratic journey, we fall in love with Lincoln alongside her as she imagines making a home for herself in the center of his magisterial memorial; ponder Alexis de Tocqueville's America; witness the inner workings of a Bronx middle-school student council; take a high-speed lesson in great American women in the National Portrait Gallery; and consider the cost of war to the brave American service families of Fort Campbell, Kentucky. The observations she makes as she travels charm and inform, and-as we have come to expect with Kalman-the route is always one of fascinating indirection. Kalman finds evidence of democracy at work all around us. And the cast of characters we meet along the way is rousing good company, featuring visits from Benjamin Franklin, Eleanor Roosevelt, and many others. And the Pursuit of Happiness is a remarkable tribute to our history and a powerful reminder of the potential our future holds, from a true national treasure.

Ces dessins s’adressent à tous ceux qui les envient d’avoir réussi à arrêter et voudraient les imiter. Ils ont pour objectif de donner au lecteur une idée du pétrin dans lequel sont pris les artistes aujourd’hui. Il y a une histoire drôle qui pose la différence entre un type qui tombe du vingtième étage – AAAAAaaa… Paf! – et celui qui tombe du deuxième étage – Paf… aaaAAAAA! L’ordre dans lequel est donné le palindrome a son importance. De même que la deuxième chute n’est grotesque qu’en comparaison avec celle, fatale, qui la précède, les générations d’artistes qui succèdent au grand bazar conceptuel ne peuvent ignorer les questionnements autoréflexifs d’un art retourné sur lui-même. Si certains considèrent cette situation comme une impasse formelle, trop sévèrement prescriptive, et choisissent de faire demi-tour, d’autres s’obstinent, sondant fébrilement les murs à la recherche d’un improbable passage.

Summary:
Suddenly fed up with city life and New York, Tomi Ungerer and his wife Yvonne, set out in search of a simpler life. They ended up on an isolated peninsula in Nova Scotia, Canada. The nearest town was two miles away and it was three years before they had a road to the house built, so it offered them the chance to create a totally different life for themselves. While they were there Ungerer continued to paint and write but he also learnt how to be a farmer, a herdsman and, where necessary, a butcher, because without ever intending to establish a farm they gradually acquired sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, goats, cows, pigs and horses. In his diary, Ungerer describes in vivid detail their trials, tribulations and at times downright bizarre life on the isolated peninsula. Carefully observed drawings of the landscape, the wild animals, their own domestic flock and bring his words to life and create a distinctive impression of the wild and a times bleak landscape. Originally published in 1983, Far Out isn’t Far Enough is now reissued to introduce a new audience to Tomi Ungerer’s evocative style of drawing and writing.
