LEOMACS "CURSED STORIES NO.3". 1999. China on paper. Cm 43x30. FOR THE FIRST TIME WE BRING TOGETHER THE ORIGINAL BLACK WHITES AND COLOR PLATES MADE FOR THE FRENCH EDITION AND COUNTERSIGNED ALL BY THE AUTHOR. THE WORK IS COMPLETE AND EXTRAORDINARY.THE BLACK WHITES ARE 30 X 21 CM, THE COLOR PLATES ALL 43 CM X 30 CMThe characters drawn by Leomacs in a masterful manner have famous faces, disharmonious stupors, absurd candor and heinous perversions. One is enthralled by this work in the original black white and later ecoline coloring on pantone sheet, again done by Leomacs and here signed on the back of each panel. To reiterate a concept: that coloring in comics when authored has dignity of sign and belonging, has value as an original work. In the work that came out in France and Italy for X Comics albums in the late 1990s. Irreverent, brash, grotesque, comic and decadent work. The written story is missing, the lettering in short, the work of Fildor, or Massimiliano Filadoro.
