Audrey Niffenegger

Opis

Otherworldly, provocative, and strange, the author's art is a vital a part of her vision as her best-selling novels The Time Traveler's Wife and Her Fearful Symmetry. This is a mid-career retrospective of her work, reflecting her talent for cultivating a narrative through pictures and her own confrontations with life, mortality, and magic.

Recenzje

Spare, fable-like narratives featuring betrayals and metamorphoses, with touches of Aubrey Beardsley and Egon Schiele... As well as strange self-portraits and recent drawings on the themes of birth, death and books. Erica Wagner New Statesman
