Author: Dylan, Bob

Condition: New

Rendered in striking, explosive graphic form, many of Bob Dylans most famous songs-illustrated as theyve never been before. For the last forty years Bob Dylan has never ceased to be one of the most creative and inspired musicians in the world. Mesmerized by the power of his lyrics and intrigued by the possibilities of translating his powerful, enigmatic personality into art, thirteen leading graphic artists banded together to create this unusual testament to the universality and transcendent vision of an American musical genius. With their vibrant, unexpected colors and dynamic, cinematic imagery, this group has assembled in Bob Dylan Revisited one of the most provocative interpretations of Dylans music in decades. These artists capture the tender emotions, the ineffable sadness, and the romantic overtones of Dylans classic songs, at the same time reflecting the moral and political urgency of his music. Each artists style surprisingly complements Dylans lyrics and offers an irresistible window through which to reconsider one of Americas most enigmatic artists. A deeply respectful and brilliant homage to the extraordinary influence of Bob Dylan.Featured inside: "Blowin In the Wind" by Thierry Murat "A Hard Rains A-Gonna Fall" by Lorenzo Mattotti "I Want You" by Nicolas Nemiri "Girl of the North Country" by Franois Avril "Lay, Lady, Lay" by Jean-Claude Gtting "Positively 4th Street" by Christopher "Tombstone Blues" by Bézian "Desolation Row" by Dave McKean "Like A Rolling Stone" by Alfred, Raphalle Le Rio, Mal Le Mae, and Henri Meunier "Hurricane" by Gradimir Smudja "Blind Willie McTell" by Benjamin Flao "Knockin on Heavens Door" by Jean-Philippe Bramanti "Not Dark Yet" by ZepNominated for two 2010 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards: Best Anthology; Best Short Story ("Hurricane" by Gradimir Smudja).
