Потрясающее иллюстрированное издание самой известной части Ветхого Завета - Книги Бытия. Все 50 глав Книги Бытия со Дня Творения до смерти Иосифа практически построчно проиллюстрированы Робертом Крамбом.

Первоначально задумав описать изгнание Адама и Евы из Рая, Крамб проникся языком Библии, осознав, что “текст настолько великолепен и настолько необычен, что сам просится на страницы графики,” что решил что вместо того, чтобы заняться очередной интерпретацией, он станет слово за словом иллюстрировать Библию.

В основу были положены английские переводы Библии Роберта Альтера и короля Джеймса. Перевод русского издания - официальный синодальный перевод.

«Для коміксу Ліхтенштейн зробив не більше, ніж Воргол для супу», — казав Арт Шпіґельман, автор графічного роману «Маус» і редактор журналу RAW, повертаючись до питання взаємин коміксу та мистецтва. Виставка «Високе й низьке: сучасне мистецтво [і] популярна культура» (Музей сучасного мистецтва Нью-Йорка, 1990), що представляла американські комікси поруч із роботами Хуана Міро, Енді Воргола, Роя Ліхтенштейна, Філіпа Гастона тощо, обурила спільноту незалежних коміксистів. Шпіґельман надрукував комікс проти виставки в журналі Artforum, а п’ятнадцять років потому за його консультації було створено виставку «Майстри американського коміксу» (Музей…

All of Robert Crumb's work from his very influential Weirdo magazine.

Widely considered to be some of his best work ever. Weirdo was a magazine-sized comics anthology created by Robert Crumb in 1981, which ran for 28 issues.

It served as a "low art” counterpoint to its contemporary highbrow Raw. Early issues of Weirdo reflect Crumb's interests at the time: outsider art, fumetti, Church of the SubGenius-type anti-propaganda and assorted "weirdness.”

The incredibly varied stories include TV Blues, Life of Boswell, People Make me Nervous, The Old Songs are the Best Songs,Uncle Bob's Mid-Life Crisis, Kraft Ebbing's' Psycopathia Sexualis, Goldilocks, The Life of Philip K Dick, and many more.

Also within are several photo strip stories featuring Crumb himself and various of his trademark well-built women including his wife Aline Kominsky-Crumb in tales such as Get in Shape and Unfaithful Husband.

Featuring over 100 pages of vintage Crumb comics starring the white-bearded, diminutive sage-cum-charlatan, ranging from charming, freewheeling early 70s stories to the disturbing, controversial 90s stories - including the entire 40-page 'Mr Natural and Devil Girl' epic. Crumb's Mister Natural is probably the most famous underground character of all, meaning readers will not want to miss the chance to snatch up this jam-packed collection of comics from one of the all-time masters.

As this volume opens we find our hero at age 46, solidly into the midlife crises years. Crumb has lived his entire life in anxious, introspective, self-flagellating crises, however, so the middle years bring only a refinement of his lifelong turmoil and further honing of artistic talent. More words accompany the drawings, demonstrating Crumb's brilliant powers of observation, as in a long paragraph devoted to an encounter with one of brother Maxon's vegan tu

"The Complete Crumb Comics Vol. 17 continues the multi-volume, chronological series comprising the complete works of the legendary cartoonist R. Crumb, one of America's most original, trenchant, and uncompromising artists.

I'm Grateful!" Also included is the historic "Cave Wimp" from Zap #12 (as featured on this volume's cover), "The Ol' Outsider Goes to the Academy Awards" (created for Premiere magazine), the scarce Vues De Sauve portfolio of landscape drawings made in the artist's village in southern France, and 24 pages in full-color."
