The Tempest, Jesús Cisneros's new book for Fotokino, is a personal, poetic vision of the text that lets us hear the voice of the character Ariel. Rather than simply illustrating Wi lliam Shakespeare's play, Cisneros uses the multiple possibilities of drawing to create a universe where visible and invisible, reality and dream, intermingle. And he reinvents the infinite number of ways to read this timeless work. Jesús Cisneros was born in Spain in 1969. In addition to commissions and teaching, his research and personal projects have developed into a veritable aesthetic and sensitive laboratory. Nourished by popular and non-Western art as well as 20th-century avant-gardes, his drawings have the power of spontaneity and the intensity of imagination. Show more
