Astisendo Grupo Editorial Arleri Comic Orange . The man who loved women. Through the conversation between an old painter and his model, the artist recalls everything he knows about love and, more specifically, about the relationship between men and women with the feeling of love and physical love. He has seen and lived a lot and has known for a long time the history of feelings and desires. But he will always be like the arlerí, a small fragile and capricious bird, of which they say has no brain. After this face to face, the author tries to measure the distance of the abyss that separates men and women, to measure in order to build a bridge. Merging with the story (in which autobiographical fragments can be guessed), Baudoin evokes the senses and feelings with great sweetness, not without poetry and melancholy. The author of The Journey reveals the feelings of his characters, in the same way that he likes to discover himself, with modesty, sensitivity, tenderness and intelligence, inviting us to delve into our own intimacy, our secrets and to search for our own answers. A beautiful and delicate book that touches us almost without realizing it. Edmond Baudoin was born in Nice in 1942. After studying at the School of Decorative Arts in his adolescence, he worked as an accountant before returning to drawing in 1971. In 1992 and 1997 he won the Alph´Art award at the Angoulême International Comic Festival for Best Script for Couma Acô and The Journey (Astiberri, 2005), respectively. Piero (Astiberri, 2007) earned him the award for Best Album at the Sierre Festival in 1998. Although his free drawing style and the original construction of his works may seem disconcerting, it is enough to read Edmond Baudoin´s comics to enter his universe. In them, he tells about his childhood in the post-war period, when he spent most of his time drawing with his brother Piero. He talks about his mother in Éloge de la poussière and his emancipation when he decided to leave his job as an accountant to dedicate himself to his passion in The Journey. From his encounter with Fred Vargas, a successful international creator who writes crime novels, comes The Four Rivers (Astiberri, 2009), a permanent dialogue between the novelist and the cartoonist, each bringing the richness of their own means of expression. Edmond Baudoin celebrates art, with references to painting. tradeinn Techinn
