Seeing things - Jim Woodring

Jim Woodring's charcoal drawings take the otherworldly qualities of his comics (The Frank Book) to a higher level of clarity and nuance. SEEING THINGS collects the most toothsome of these drawings and arranges them in four sections. 'Lazy Robinson', 'Frogs', 'The Visible World' and 'Portfolio in Colour'. As with the previous hardcover edition, the grimmest drawings have been left out of this collection. There is nothing here that will upset the adventurous connoisseur of mysterio autentico, but there are unique, glowing additions to Woodring's fine art oeuvre.
