Abstract

Si j’avais dû trouver un élément pour symboliser mon père, j’aurais choisi les pierres. Mais, attention pas les galets lisses et doux. Non plutôt, les rochers qui piquent les pieds si on leur marche dessus sans chaussures. Ceux qui sont recouverts d’aspérités. Ceux qui râpent, qui coupent, qui sont agressifs et froids. Mon père était un rocher sur lequel on aurait aimé s’agripper sans se blesser. Sous lequel on aurait aimé s’abriter sans se sentir menacé. Marion Fayolle réalise un chef d’oeuvre éblouissant sur la recherche d’un amour manqué, celui d’un père à l’agonie. Un homme dur et insaisissable dont on souhaite réanimer la vie et l’amour. La Tendresse des Pierres sublime par delà toutes les richesses des rapports texte et image les possibilités artistiques et littéraires d’une bande dessinée moderne que l’auteur enrichit par les influences du surréalisme et du nouveau roman. Jean-Luc Godard disait de lui Je suis un peintre qui fait de la littérature , une définition qui convient parfaitement à ce livre de Marion Fayolle.

Abstract

Prepare to be amazed. From the lenticular cover that changes with the angle of your hands all the way to the Z, ABC3D is as much a work of art as it is a pop-up book. Each of the 26 three-dimensional letters move and change before your eyes. C turns into D with a snap. M stands at attention. X becomes Y with a flick of the wrist. And then there's U...Boldly conceived and brilliantly executed with a striking black, red, and white palette, this is a book that readers and art lovers of all ages will treasure for years to come.
