PICASSO, Loulou (illustrator)

Published by Paris: Libération, 1981

Original artwork (10.5 x 9.5 inches); crayon and colored pencil over collage, pasted to cream construction paper with editorial notes to margins; SIGNED Loulou Picasso to lower right corner of image. Joined-with the accompanying number of the serial Sandwich (No. 63); self-wrappers, [56] pages., illustrated throughout in black-and-white.Sandwich (1979-1981) was the Saturday supplement to the Leftist French newspaper Libération, which functioned as a free classifieds section for the LGBTQ and counter-cultural communities, with personal ads, missed connections, job listings, music and performance notices, book reviews, et cetera. For one of their final numbers, the editors chose to run a special issue on all-things "gri-gri" (i.e. the occult), both in Paris and elsewhere, including a small review of the Botanica shops in LES and Flatbush. Loulou Picasso-from the collective of "graphical terrorists" known as Bazooka-would single-handedly illustrate this issue, including its vibrating tarot cover-art, which is also present here in its original crayon-on-collage form. Closed tear to lower corner of serial and expected signs-of-handling to artwork, else both near fine. Seller Inventory # 29490
