Comica ‘10: Louis Wain & Comica Argentina Night
Posted: November 20, 2010
There a two very special Comica Festival events taking place next week at London Print Studio that I need to draw your attention to:
Louis Wain: The Man Who Drew Cats
The life and work of the Edwardian cat artist Louis Wain, whose obsession drove him into the madhouse, is being explored by writer and broadcaster David Quantick and artist Savage Pencil in their serialised biography for Alan Moore’s Dodgem Logic magazine. Quantick and Pencil discuss their fascination with Wain and their approach to comics in an illustrated presentation. Full details here…
When: Tuesday, 23 November - 7pm to 8pm
Comica Argentina Night: Carlos Nine & Thomas Dassance
In an introductory illustrated talk, Thomas Dassance, director of the Vinetas Sueltas Comics Festival in Buenos Aires, will reveal the rich traditions and vital current scene of comics in Argentina. Then, making his first appearance in London, the brilliant Argentinian artist, writer, designer, sculptor and animator Carlos Nine will discuss his fascinating life and prolific career with Argentinian cartoonist Sylvia Libedinsky, my co-curator of the Comica Argentina exhibition earlier this year. Full details here…
When: Wednesday, 24 November - 6.30pm to 8.30pm
