UNSERIOUSNESS — LÍVIUSZ GYULAI: A CARICATURIST (Edited by Kati Gyulai)
Líviusz Gyulai was a Hungarian book illustrator, animated film director and graphic artist. An artist of unmatched cultural knowledge, he created countless unique graphic art and graphic art by printmaking and illustrated over seven hundred books with inimitable style. He also came up with the idea behind many animated shorts and series, as well as creating character designs for them, and directed them too. The artist once said of his satirical drawings: “Deforming reality highlights its essence.” So don’t let the disguise of levity fool you—it is often the deepest truth that lies behind it.
