Cowboyster--by all means, please show me what you are referring to. Links would be great. When I put the book together, I couldn't find any women cartoonists working in abstract comics. Others couldn't find them either. Since the blog came up, there have been a few--especially Nina Roos and Satu Kaikkonen--but, really, there wasn't anyone I could find for the book itself.
I will email you a list of links and what not. Although it may be debatable as to whether or not some of the woman artists I have in mind are "cartoonist working in abstact comics" but are creating abstract art that may be defined as "comics". But in the meantime, check out some of the artists/cartoonist featured in kutikuti or nazi knife. Nina and Satu's work is really amazing! I hadn't seen their work before following your blog, thank you. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, please send me the links. Have you actually seen the book itself? I know Kutikuti and that entire scene, but I'm not sure anything from there would have really fit as real "abstract comics" in the anthology; most still has too much representation. Some of Tommi Musturi's pages, maybe (but then, he's not a woman either)--but I'm not convinced his abstract pages actually function as abstract comics...
I didn't know "Nazi Knife." But looking at previews online, it seems to be primarily graphics, not comics; so, again, there are some abstract pages, but not really abstract comics that I can find. Not to mention that they don't identify the pages by artists, so I can't tell which ones are women anyway.
Nice!
