There is alot of really interesting and provocative work.<br /><br />I've been doing abstract comics myself for at least 5 years, and featured some in my BFA exhibition in 2007. I sent some images to Scott McCloud and he suggested I look into your abstract comics blog. I would love to be a contributor to this blog and feel I could offer some unique work. I have a blog for comics at whatcomics.blogspot.com if you go there and click the "geometric comic strips" tag it will show you all of my abstract work. In my opinion the best of that work features the tag "bfa exhibition" the rest are strip I did for my college paper. One of them won an award but the paper didn't tell me which one. I hope to hear back from you. <br /><br />Thank you for efforts in abstract comics,<br />Aaron Zvi FelderMelvin Mannheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10162579553535511024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-899946063697780510.post-80584255689452218452009-08-19T11:53:43.173-04:002009-08-19T11:53:43.173-04:00Thanks, Blopa!Thanks, Blopa!Andrei Molotiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17400106944822618816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-899946063697780510.post-31814166430953801422009-08-19T07:28:53.855-04:002009-08-19T07:28:53.855-04:00Allow me to translate: "The Abstract Comics v...Allow me to translate: "The Abstract Comics volume edited by Fantagraphics allows to go a step beyond and trascend the accepted definition of comics until it leaves it obsolete, stating that the expresive possibilities of this medium and this language are still unknown. When it appears the grammar and semantics of the ninth art begin to be known, Andrei Molotiu´s proposal throws down completely the formal architecture to show the existence of unopened doors that can let us discover new keys to understand in all its depth and extension what comics are... It wouldn´t be the narrative the fundamental element that defines comics then, but the sequentiality and composition as generators of sensorial vehicles with spatial and temporal components (and even synesthetic ones). Comics are even more exciting than what we believed..."<br />I hope I didn´t make a mess out of it. Cheers.Blopahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14402700024149557146noreply@blogger.com
