Ralph Steadman ist ein britischer Cartoonist und Illustrator, der für seinen scharfen sozialen und politischen Kommentar bekannt ist. Seine Arbeit, die sich durch wilde, ausdrucksstarke Linien und oft beunruhigenden Humor auszeichnet, taucht in die absurden und dunkleren Aspekte der menschlichen Natur ein. Steadman zeichnet sich durch die Schaffung unvergesslicher Bilder aus, die ebenso provokativ wie witzig sind. Sein kühner visueller Stil und seine kompromisslose Weltsicht machen ihn zu einer einzigartigen Größe in der Illustrationskunst.

Cartoonist and national treasure Ralph Steadman's unique take on a variety of extinct birds ...
The book explores the dynamic partnership between Ralph Steadman and Hunter S. Thompson, highlighting their influential contributions to Gonzo journalism. It delves into their initial meeting at the 1970 Kentucky Derby and chronicles their 40-year friendship, marked by collaborations on iconic works like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Steadman's distinctive, anarchic illustrations complement Thompson's literary genius, creating a lasting impact on both art and journalism. Their work together also encompasses significant cultural events, including the Watergate scandal.
The Boids are back in town ... The follow-up to the award-winning EXTINCT BOIDS, this book features more of the incredible art of cartoonist Ralph Steadman. This time the focus is not on the birds that are gone, but the ones that there's still time to save. These are the 192 Critically Endangered birds on the IUCN Red List, species such as the Giant Ibis, the Kakapo, the Sumatran Ground-cuckoo and the iconic Spoon-billed Sandpiper – these, along with a number of classic Steadman creations such as the Unsociable Lapwing, are the NEARLY-EXTINCT BOIDS. Woids are again by author, conservationist and film-maker Ceri Levy. Together, Ceri and Ralph are THE GONZOVATIONISTS.
