The Comic Strip Art of Lyonel Feininger
Lyonel Feininger - 1994
Out of print for a decade, this new edition (with newly designed covers) of "The Comic Strip Art of Lyonel Feininger" features one of the ten cartooning greats featured in the historic "Masters of American Comics" show produced by the Los Angeles Hammer Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art and currently traveling across the country. It is the only complete collection of the legendary comic strips of one of the medium's all-time greatest artists. Known worldwide for his accomplishments as a painter, Feininger began his career as a cartoonist, producing--all too briefly--two beautifully ambitious comic strips for the "Chicago Sunday Tribune" in 1906: "The Kin-Der-Kids" and "Wee Willie Winkie's World," both of which remain high points in the history of strip cartooning. "The Kin-Der-Kids" is a rollicking comic opera of the ludicrous exploits of a group of young adventurers as they set off around the world in their bathtub with the oppressive Auntie Jim-Jam in hot pursuit. "Wee Willie Winkie's World" is a Little Nemo-esque visual tour-de-force of a little boy's charming fantasy world. Long considered an equal of Winsor McCay and George Herriman, Feininger's place in strip history is cemented with this beautiful, full-color, oversized collection, edited and featuring an introduction by historian Bill Blackbeard ("Krazy & Ignatz").
