Krátky popis
Frank Frazetta has reigned as the undisputed king of fantasy art
for 50 years, his fame only growing in the years since his death.
With his paintings now breaking auction records (Egyptian Queen
sold for $ 5.4 million in 2019) he’s long overdue for this ultimate
monograph.Born to a Sicilian immigrant family in Brooklyn, 1928,
Frazetta was a minor league athlete, petty criminal and serial
seducer with movie star looks and phenomenal talent. He claimed to
only make art when there was nothing better to do – he preferred
playing baseball - yet began his professional career in comics at
age 16.Strip work led him to the infamous EC Comics, then to oils
for Tarzan and Conan pulp covers. Both characters were interpreted
by many before him, but as he explained in the 1970s, “I’m very
physical minded. In Brooklyn, I knew Conan, I knew guys just like
him,” and he used this first-hand knowledge of muscle and macho to
redefine fantasy heroes as more massive, more menacing, more
testosterone-fueled than anything seen before.As counterbalance he
created a new breed of women, nude as censorship allowed, with
pixie faces and multiparous bodies: thick thighed, heavy buttocked,
breasts cantilevered out to there, yet still, with their soft
bellies and hints of cellulite, believably real. Add in the action,
the creatures, the twilit worlds of haunting shadow and Frazetta’s
art is addictive as potato chips.
