- Summary
- The USA’s Aline Kominsky-Crumb (b. 1948) and Robert Crumb (b. 1943) are an odd couple—in life, as well as in art. He is a celebrated underground artist and she is a pioneer of the autobiographical comic. Since 1972, they have been collaboratively writing and drawing the autobiographical relationship-and-family comic strip "Aline & Bob", in which the societal upheavals of the 1970s, the differences between man and woman, and a handful of substantial neuroses play leading roles: a side-splitting drama, unique in the world of comics, with a wealth of punch lines. The publication "Aline Kominsky-Crumb & Robert Crumb Drawn Together" coincides with the exhibition of the same name and contains selected episodes from "Aline & Bob", including the stories that have never been published in Europe before, supplemented with solo works by Aline Kominsky-Crumb and Robert Crumb, as well as photographs and articles on the life and works of these artists.
- Aline Kominsky-Crumb und Robert Crumb sind ein ungleiches Paar--im Leben und in der Kunst. Die Pionierin des autobiografischen Comics und der gefeierte Undergroundzeichner und Schöpfer von Charakteren wie 'Fritz the Cat' und 'Mr. Natural' bringen diese Spannung in wahnwitzigen, gemeinsam gezeichneten Geschichten zu Papier. Mit unbändiger Lust am Zeigen und ohne Tabus verwandeln die beiden Zeichner ihr eigenes Leben und ihren Umzug von den USA nach Südfrankreich in ein urkomisches Drama, in dem die einschneidenden gesellschaftlichen Umwälzungen der 1970er-Jahre, die Unterschiede von Mann und Frau und ein paar handfeste Neurosen die Hauptrollen spielen. Die Publikation gibt einen Überblick über das gemeinsame Werk, zeigt aber auch Arbeiten von jedem einzelnen. Neben gezeichneten Geschichten enthält das Buch auch Abbildungen und Texte über das Schaffen und das Leben der Künstler.
