A SNEAK PEEK at Humanoids’ new illustrated biography…
Few artists have had as eclectic a career as creative genius Alejandro Jodorowsky — and Humanoids’ major illustrated biography of the master by Vincent Berniere is out this week.
The bio looks at the 91-year-old’s life in the theater, film, music, poetry and, of course, comics.
That’s a pat description, I know, given Jodorowsky’s broad range of accomplishments, so here’s the official description itself:
“A definitive look at the life of legendary filmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky and his many wild creative ventures throughout his 90 years on earth. A journey through Jodo’s personal life, his life in the theater, his rebirth as a ’70s cinematic cult figure and and, of course, tales of his work on Dune, his unfinished cinematic masterpiece. No biography would be complete without an in-depth look into his life the world of comics, his collaborations with Mœbius, his passion for poetry, Tarot, Esoterism, spirituality, Mythical Cabarets, and the overall Jodo philosophy.”
13th Dimension being a place to read and talk about comics, we’ve got a SNEAK PEEK for you spotlighting the Incal auteur’s landmark output in sequential art with Metal Hurlant (aka Heavy Metal.)
