Eileen Gray: A House Under the Sun by Charlotte Malterre-Barthes & Zosia Dzierzawska. Nobrow, 2019. 9781910620434. 155pp. including biographies of everyone involved and a bibliography. http://www.powells.com/book/-9781910620434?partnerid=34778&p_bt

Eileen Gray was an artist, designer, and the architect best known for the now-famous house she created for her lover, architect Jean Badovici, on the coast in the South of France in the 1920s and early 1930s. This graphic novel is a biographical sketch centered around her work on that house, known as E-1027. It also includes scenes of her childhood, of her studying lacquerwork, and of other friendships, but her relationship with Badovici is at the center of the narrative. It's clear he doesn't understand her, and that costs him their relationship after he allows another architect to ruin E-1027 for Gray.  

I have a minor interest in architecture and had never heard of Gray. I picked up this book because everything Nobrow publishes deserves a look, and I'm so glad I did. This is one of the most stunning graphic novels I've seen in the last few years. I learned a little on my first read through, and I'll learn more as I reread it over and over. The book is as beautiful as E-1027 must be, and now I've got to visit there sometime to see the building (now a historical monument) that inspired this book.

Eileen Gray: A House Under the Sun – Charlotte Malterre-Barthes and Zosia Dzierzawska’s Graphic Biography Seeks to Redress the Historical Balance

ELCAF FORTNIGHT!

Now considered an architectural design classic E-1027, a villa situated near the sea in the south of France, has a difficult and checkered past. The vision of Irish architect and important figure in the Modern Movement, Eileen Gray, it nonetheless became associated with the work of others, with Gray’s role almost written out of history. As is often the case with pioneering women.

Questa settimana una delegazione di Armadilli é partita verso Bologna per partecipare alla Bologna Children’s Book Fair! This week, a delegation of Armadillos set off towards Bologna for the annual Children’s Book Fair!

Abbiamo camminato per chilometri attraverso i padiglioni, salutando amici, godendoci il contesto e trovando tesori inaspettati, come lo stand taiwanese:

We walked for kilometers across the fair halls, saying hello to friends, taking in the atmosphere, and stumbling upon little jewels, like this year’s Taiwan stand:

Abbiamo sfogliato centinaia di libri, vecchi e nuovi, e trovato alcune nostre pubblicazioni nella libreria ufficiale della fiera!

We flipped through hundreds of books, old and new - and found some of our own publications at the official fair bookstore!

Quest’anno abbiamo trovato particolarmente bella la Mostra degli Illustratori - e non solo perché fra i selezionati c’era anche Zosia!

We loved this year’s Illustrator’s Exhibition - and not just because Zosia was part of it!

Ci siamo poi ritrovati tutti all’Illustrators Survival Corner, dove c’era chi faceva piccole presentazioni (Zosia) e chi aveva i suoi lavori esposti (Alessandra):

Finally, we would converge at the Illustrators Survival Corner, where some of us would run small presentations (Zosia), while others had their work exhibited (Alessandra):

Dopo una settimana intensissima, é tempo di riposarci un poco. Buon weekend anche a voi!

After a super-intense week, it’s time for a little rest. Have a good weekend!
