Following the adaptation of Swann in Love by Pierre Alechinsky, Éditions Gallimard has given carte blanche to an artist who has chosen to explore the world of William Shakespeare. “‘To be or not to be,’ Aki Kuroda tells us, ‘is a phrase that haunted my childhood without me truly understanding its context.’ As an adult, he developed a genuine passion for this text by the English playwright, which has been a true source of inspiration. ‘It’s a real collaboration with Shakespeare that transcends time and space.’ ‘I called William and we talked about it,’ he explains.”
