The Art of Harvey Kurtzman: The Mad Genius of Comics |
Harvey Kurtzman was the first to publish the artwork of cartoonist R. Crumb. Gloria Steinem started her career working as an editorial assistant for Kurtzman. Terry Gilliams first break was as Kurtzmans assistant, where he was introduced to a then-unkown John Cleese, and the genesis of Monty Python was formed. Art Spiegelman has stated on record that he owes his career to Kurtzman. And Harvey Kurtzman is one of Playboy publisher Hugh Hefners favorite artists. In the New York Times Book Review, Harvey Kurtzman was called One of the most important figures in postwar America. He was the creator of MAD Magazine and Playboys Little Annie Fanny, and is considered one of the leading artists in American satirical and adult comics. Kurtzmans skills as a writer, artist, and editor brought a witty and profound perspective to comics and magazine publishing.Through the various publications he created, Kurtzman had an immense impact on popular culture as well as on the artists who worked for him and all those who followed who draw comics and cartoons. The Art of Harvey Kurtzman is the first and only authorized celebration of this "Master of American Comics." The book will include pencil sketches, layouts, inked drawings, color compositions, correspondence, and hundreds of never-before-seen photos and art from the Kurtzman archives.
