Hamlet illustrated by Aki Kuroda
Hamlet illustrated by Aki Kuroda
After Un amour de Swann decorated by Pierre Alechinsky, Éditions Gallimard gives carte blanche to an artist who has chosen to invest in the world of William Shakespeare. "To be or not to be," Aki Kuroda tells us, "is a phrase that inhabited my childhood without me really knowing its context." As an adult, he developed a real passion for this text by the English playwright, which has been a real source of inspiration. "It is a real work of collaboration with Shakespeare that goes beyond time and space." "I called William and we talked about it," he explains.
Limited edition of 99 numbered copies; Edition accompanied by two lithographs on BFK Rives paper, numbered and signed, produced at the Idem workshop, Paris. Screen-printed plexiglass slipcase designed by the artist.
