Tomi Ungerer, página 2 de 5

English / French / GermanPREF. DE MICHEL HOUELLEBECQMaster illustrator and dedicated humanitarian, Alsatian artist Tomi Ungerer has published some 150 books during the past four decades in his quest to open people's minds and abolish bigotry of all kinds. Though best known for his wild and imaginative children's books, Ungerer's fantastic (and often controversial) erotic drawings deserve equal attention.This new book is a retrospective of his erotic oeuvre, including 200 images covering all aspects of his erotic work and almost 200 previously unpublished drawings. From the very original 'The Joy of Frogs' to his erotic flowers series ('rare' flowers with such names as 'Spermafloris linguifolium' and 'Perivagina superba'), Tomi Ungerer's work stretches the imagination to the maximum and is marked by a very beautiful, original style.With an introduction by Ungerer and an extensive biography/bibliography section, this is not only a must-have for his fans but an important addition to any art book collection. Forget about reality for a moment and take a trip to Ungerer's world of wonderful, sexy hallucinations. And don't forget to bring back some of what you learned ...

Hailed by the "New York Times Book Review" as 'one of the most brilliant illustrators at work today', Tomi Ungerer has been making beautiful, anarchic and unique books for children for more than 40 years. He has been described by the "Guardian" as 'the direct natural descendant of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen' and, like all the best fairy tales, his classic story of "The Three Robbers" is by turns scary, charming and surprising.The book tells the story of three fierce black-clad robbers who terrorize the countryside, scaring everyone they meet. One robber stops carriage horses with his pepper spray, the second destroys the wheels of the carriage with his axe, and the third robs the passengers by holding them up with his blunderbuss. One day the robbers stop a carriage only to find a small orphan girl called Tiffany inside. On her way to live with a strange aunt, Tiffany is delighted to meet the robbers, who take her back to their cave instead of their usual haul of money, gold and jewels. The next day, Tiffany sees the treasures the robbers have amassed and asks what they plan to do with their riches.The men are baffled, as they had never thought about spending their money.So they decide to buy a castle and welcome all the lost, unhappy and abandoned children they can find. The robbers dress them in tall hats and long capes, just like the ones they wear themselves, only in red instead of black. Years later, when they are grown up, the children build a village near the castle, full of people wearing red hats and red capes. They also build three tall towers, in honour of the three robbers. First published in 1962, "The Three Robbers" has been translated into 16 languages, but has been unavailable in English for years. Now, this beautifully woven sequence of entertaining text and colourful eye-catching illustrations is back to delight children aged 4-8 and above.

No les da miedo pilotar aviones, excavar en busca de petróleo, bucear en el océano a la caza del tesoro ni explorar oscuras cuevas. Porque la mejor aventura es disfrutar cada día en familia de los ricos pasteles y tartas que prepara mamá Melops.

The ornery protagonist Piper Paws hates his overly sweet mother's kisses and is a perfect enfant terrible at school. But Piper really loves his mother; in the end, they are reconciled, and Piper sells his stink bombs, slingshot, and firecrackers. Few have ever equaled Tomi Ungerer's dark genius when it comes to creating books for children; this welcome reissue is even more relevant to children today than when it was first issued.

Beltzen familia bat beste auzo batera aldatu da. Bere urtebetetzean, Rafi txikiak ez du nor gonbidatu oraindik ez duelako lagunik, baina gurasoek opari egindako erremintei esker, erabaki du bere lagun propioak egitea eta irudiak eraikitzea gai birziklagarriak erabiliz. Egun batean Ki ezagutuko du, auzoan bizi den Asiako bikote baten alaba, eta honek bere burua eskainiko dio panpinak janzteko arropa josteko. Hala, auzokide izateaz gain, lagun min ere bilakatuko dira, komunean duten zaletasunak batuta; hain zuzen, sormenak.Ez da faltako etorkinak izateagatik eta behar dituzten gaiak zabortegitik hartzeagatik mesfidantza erakutsiko dienik, ez eta beren irudimena garatzen jarraitzeko oztopoak jarriko dizkien agintaririk ere. Hala ere, Rafi eta Ki beren lanengatik ospetsu bilakatuko dira eta beste pertsona batzuk animatuko dituzte gauza bera egin dezaten.Estilo koloretsuari eta izaera surrealistako xehetasunei jarraikiz, Tomi Ungererrek album ilustratuaren alorrera darama ahulekiko eta behartsuekiko konpromiso soziala: Lagun berriak lanean arrazakeria eta tolerantzia-eza arbuiatzen ditu, ironiaz mintzatzen da beste kultura batzuei loturiko topikoen inguruan eta ohitura aniztasuna txalotzen du. Halaber, ohikoak ez diren sorkuntza moduak aldezten ditu, hala nola hiriko artea eta birziklatzetik abiatuta eginiko zabor-ar...
