Adrian Tomine & "The New Yorker" exhibition
Adrian Tomine was born in Sacramento 46 years ago. Very quickly, he promises to be a comic book writer as talented as John Romita, famous cartoonist of Spider-Man and Daredevil. From the 90s, he created and self-edited his only series to date: Optic Nerve, still in the process of publication. Influenced by authors such as Jaime Hernandez, Daniel Clowes or Chris Ware, his trait, always evolving, can be likened to many underground comics. Yet his style is unique, as evidenced by his publications in The New Yorker or Times. In his latest book, La solitude du Marathonien de la Bande Dessinée, he changes his style, wanting to expose himself and his own vulnerability.
You can discover the third exhibition, from February 15 Adrian Tomine and the New Yorker . The American newspaper The New Yorker has built a solid reputation by welcoming in its pages articles and news of Philip Roth, Truman Capote or Vladimir Nabokov. He ended his prestige by entrusting his covers to the top of the world comics; Charles Addams, Sempé and Adrian Tomine. This exhibition will present some of his famous Uns that he made.
