Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Luigi Pericle (19162001) was a universally interested and gifted personality, a self-taught illustrator and painter, a man of letters, mystic, theosophist, and intellectual whose work and legacy eludes any categorisation. Born in Basel, Switzerland, as Pericle Luigi Giovannetti to a mother of French and a father of Italian origin, he had great success as an illustrator and cartoonist in the 1950s. His cartoons were published worldwide in satirical magazines like Punch, his comic strip Max the Marmot, published in newspapers and books, was hugely popular across Europe, the United States, and in Japan. In 1958, Giovannetti took a radical turn to painting and ink drawing. Now signing his works as Luigi Pericle, he quickly gained international recognition as an artist and his paintings were exhibited in gallery and museum shows in Britain and Switzerland during the 1960s. Yet recognition was not what he was looking for and he disappeared voluntarily from the art world to lead an increasingly secluded life dedicated entirely to his art and writing. His home Casa San Tomaso on the legendary Monte Verita near Ascona, in southern Switzerland, offered ideal surroundings for an artist so strongly drawn to spirituality and esotericism. Luigi Pericle - Ad Astra for the first time explores how the spiritual environment and tradition of Monte Verita influenced Pericle as an artist and how Asian calligraphy and Zen Buddhism were influential to his drawing practice. Moreover, the book investigates Pericle's understanding of abstraction in art and his own syncretism of modern esotericism and spirituality. Text in English, German and Italian.

Brossura. Condition: new. Bologna, 2025; br., pp. 96. Pericle Luigi Giovannetti (1916 - 2001) è stato un illustratore, fumettista e pittore svizzero di origini franco-italiane. Max la marmotta nasce nel 1952 sulla celebre rivista satirica britannica Punch.

Questo volume ripropone la selezione di vignette che ha fatto conoscere Max in Italia nel 1959. Elfo, diavoletto, infante, artista, impresario, atleta, homme du monde.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Es ist eine der besten Kunstgeschichten der letzten Jahre: Der in Basel in ärmliche Verhältnisse geborene Luigi Pericle (1916-2001) erfand unter dem Künstlernamen Giovannetti mit der Comicfigur Max das Murmeltier einen weltweiten Bestseller und brachte es als Illustrator zu Reichtum und Ruhm. Darauf übersiedelte er nach Ascona und widmete sich fortan der Malerei. Auch als Künstler fand er schnell grosse internationale Beachtung - zog sich aufgrund seiner Skepsis gegenüber dem Kunstbetrieb jedoch bald zurück, beendete die Ausstellungstätigkeit und malte für sich allein weiter. Völlig unerwartet wurde jüngst das künstlerische Werk Luigi Pericles in Ascona wiederentdeckt - und stiess sofort auf grosse Resonanz in Form von Ausstellungen und Zeitungsartikeln. Dieses Buch - das anlässlich einer grossen Ausstellung im MASI Museo d'arte della Svizzera italiana in Lugano erscheint - setzt sich nun erstmals in deutscher Sprache mit diesem aussergewöhnlich vielschichtigen und enigmatischen uvre auseinander. Es zeigt Pericles Werk vor dem Hintergrund seiner Auseinandersetzung mit Spiritualität und der Philosophie des Zen sowie seiner Erforschung der Kalligrafie und den Traditionen der Abstraktion.…
