Laura Varsky

We are three artists who love books, and cats too. Didi Grau loves to play with words, Christian Montenegro loves to do so with illustrations and Laura Varsky with design and fonts. We put together this new picture book because we are passionate about what we do and we would love for people to enjoy it as much as we did when we created it. “'Cuatro gatos negros flacos' ('Four skinny black cats') is a book that plays with four words that repeat, reflect and multiply themselves, words that increase and decrease, horizontal, vertical, diagonal and zigzagging words. It is a book with drawings that tell stories as they multiply, and then they decrease and start all over, but the other way around: four cats that smile, tease, wink, sleep and stretch themselves.” Because of its graphic presentation, this is a book that by classic means of production (through publishing houses, distributors and bookshops) would be too expensive for buyers. That is why we want to have a direct contact between the readers and the authors, that is to say, between you and us. We plan to make an exclusive print run of 500 books printed in offset and signed by the authors. We print books with the best printing companies, with quality paper, ink and binding. The book can be spread and is 7.9 inches by 7.9 inches in size when closed, but when spread it is 13 feet long! --- It is a book for all ages, for kids and grown-ups too, to read alone or with someone, to enjoy every page on the table or spread it on the carpet and read the illustrations and watch the words, to try and find all the details, all the differences and similarities, to read from first to last and last to first, to read from oposite sides and reunite in the middle, to read from very close or very far. To sum up, it is a book that, like a magic box, hides all the stories one can imagine. We hope we can count with your help to make this real!

This is a new editorial project which published a visual diary of the artist PowerPaola, author of "Tropical Virus".

Popular Culture, humor and graffiti in Bs. As. And South Amercia. The prototype of the book is ready. Help us produce it and you can get a copy! " One of the big men who populated this earth said: - " the one that is free of sin ligths the first joint ".- It was in Egypt, lost in the lies of those who wrote History, where a dissident decided to express his rage by painting a hieroglyph in the door of the Pharaoh s palace. The image of a dog that was analy raping their Highness was not well accepted by the highest commands. More recently in time, they were brave corsairs who navigated the Corbeta Halcón and as the legend accounts, they managed to furrow yankee seas to take in assault for 6 days the state of California, place that then would turn into the icon of everything that is perverse. This is Corbeta Halcón. A great washbowl of cheap wine where the marginal thing, the prohibited, the desire of set occident on fire, the wild things, the loyalty,the fellowship, midgets, alienation, anxiety and the half-caste dogs swim always doggystyle and they are more awake than ever when the dawn comes. We firmly believe that the current market is saturated of European and Yankee publications about graffiti and lifestyle with a lot of makeup. We love our streets, our imperfections and all this mixture that makes us who we are, our culture. We believe that is the time for a book to truly reflect all these worries and we support that idea through the demand that our material has had in publications and blogs locally as in the rest of America and Europe. Its time to put us in the map, help us making it happen. Dont forget to check our blog www.corbetahalcon.com.ar. Thank you all. CH CREW.

FLANBE IS: - - An editorial for independent publications. - - A collection of photography, drawing, design, art, poetry and project notebooks that has a print run of 100 copies. - - A collection of books of different shapes. - - A medium to promote the work of young, emerging artists with low coverage. - - The kickstarter to produce exhibitions and different spaces to exchange experiences. - - A project in movement and evolution. The first issues of the first two titles of Flanbé (both by Jimena Passadore) are out of stock: - - Bitacora – a book of photography – only 50 issues were produced in the first print run - - Retratos de Leipzig – a book of photography – only 20 issues were printed This is why we would like to make another print run so more and more people can have them and keep expanding our spirit to the world! So, if you like what we do, get a Flanbé home so you can help us make it! Your support is a key element and you will be able to take a little bit of us with you. Thank you very much! You can also read a synopsis of both books: Bitácora It’s a book that shows diverse experiences between 2006 and 2010 that shows constant growth. The situations don’t present a specific “here and now” but lots of “here and now” moments thru a long period of time. More than ever, the camera is of key importance when it combines trips, portraits, friends, family, self portraits, scenery, animals… This is why Bitácora honors those work notebooks – and are not casually very used by designers – where notes are taken that may seen senseless at the time, but where something is felt and that valuable feeling is preserved to look into it in the future. Retratos de Leipzig Get its inicial kickstarter in 2006, where the string that puts it together is determined by the presence of foreigners studying in Germany – been the author a part of the group of self exiled people for diverse reasons. The pictures show testimonies, they tell a story of the search of each character and shows a dialogue with all the comments, written by hand of everyone portraited, but there with a post it. People sharing here and now with the artist and her deciding to immortalize them in a book.
