Jules Feiffer

    26. Januar 1929

    Jules Feiffer ist ein gefeierter Schöpfer, dessen unverwechselbare Illustrationen und Erzählungen sich mit der Komplexität menschlicher Emotionen auseinandersetzen. Seine Arbeit bewegt sich oft zwischen Humor und Unbehagen und schöpft direkt aus seinen Kindheitswahrnehmungen einer Welt voller Ängste und Unsicherheiten, insbesondere in Bezug auf Elternfiguren. Feiffers künstlerischer Ansatz erfasst das rohe, oft beunruhigende emotionale Material, das seinen kreativen Output antreibt, und führt zu einem Stil, der sofort erkennbar und zutiefst eindrucksvoll ist.

    Der Fluch des Lachens
    • Lachen ist gesund, und sicher ist es eine glückliche Eigenschaft, alle Menschen zum Lachen bringen zu können. Ein König aber braucht einen ernst zu nehmenden Nachfolger. Roger, der lebenslustige, immer ansteckend fröhliche Prinz, wird auf die Suche geschickt, damit er den Ernst des Lebens erkennt. Nicht, dass ihm jemand gesagt hätte, was er eigentlich zu suchen hat. Dennoch macht er sich gut gelaunt auf den Weg, vollbringt die tollsten Heldentaten, findet irgendwann heraus wonach er sucht und findet schließlich auch sein Glück. Ob er allerdings auch den Ernst des Lebens entdeckt hat?

      Der Fluch des Lachens

      A collection of legendary absurdist comic strips about life in 1970s New York City, now available in print for the first time in over thirty years. Every week, from 1978 to 1980, The Village Voice brought a new installment of Mark Alan Stamaty's uproarious, endlessly inventive strip MacDoodle St. Centering more or less on Malcolm Frazzle, a blocked poet struggling to complete his latest lyric for Dishwasher Monthly, Stamaty's creation encompassed a dizzying array of characters, stories, jokes, and digressions. One week might feature the ongoing battle between irate businessmen and bearded beatniks for control of a Greenwich Village coffee shop, the next might reveal a dastardly plot involving a genetically engineered dishwashing monkey, or the frustrated dreams of an irascible, over-caffeinated painter, or the mysterious visions of a duffle-coated soothsayer on the bus. Not to mention the variable moods and longings of the comic strip itself.... And somehow, in the end, it all fits together. MacDoodle St. is more than just a hilarious weekly strip; it is a great comic novel, a thrilling, surprising, unexpectedly moving ode to art, life, and New York City. This new edition features a brand-new, twenty-page autobiographical comic by Stamaty explaining what happened next and why MacDoodle St. never returned, in a unique, funny, and poignant look at the struggles and joys of being an artist.
