Anthony Haden-Guest's cunning cartoons seethe in a mashup of audacious hilarity, and sublime social commentary amidst the dangers of masked manners, the undoing of civilization and its self-absorption. They infiltrate, disrupt, subvert the chatty miscalculations, the prescribed power in words, the casual conversation unleashed to hell-bent mercy and LOL.

Produktbeschreibung
Anthony Haden-Guest's cunning cartoons seethe in a mashup of audacious hilarity, and sublime social commentary amidst the dangers of masked manners, the undoing of civilization and its self-absorption. They infiltrate, disrupt, subvert the chatty miscalculations, the prescribed power in words, the casual conversation unleashed to hell-bent mercy and LOL. These series of comics joyfully corrupt the display of bitchy, dismissive formalities, the brazen encounters of style and substance, whether strangers, lovers, friends or foes. There is an urgent uproar in these caricatures as they interpret for us the daily sarcasm and undermining that deprive us of our dignity and grace. The cartoons act as a truth to tyrants, authority a-holes, caressing and cherishing personal interference interactions with the choice weapon of wit. AHG gives permission for the vulnerability and influence of humor, not laughing at us, but to get us laughing together as an intimate gesture. The cartoons engage the double entendres of consciousness as a creative declaration of agency, to undo cruelty, with the humanity of laughter and parody, ultimately to free us of the perils of words. Brilliant indeed. -Karen Finley Anthony Haden-Guest Anthony Haden-Guest is a writer, reporter, cartoonist, and sporadic performer.
