Philippe Ug Livres

L'histoire de la vie d'un papillon à partir de sa métamorphose, à travers des sculptures en papier. Les pages de ce livre sont animées de pop-up.--[Memento]

Parallèlement à ses nombreux pop-ups publiés aux Grandes Personnes, Philippe UG réalise chaque année des ouvrages en sérigraphie à tirage limité dont, par exemple, Tout au fond imprimé à 150 exemplaires en 2014. Pour que tout le monde puisse acquérir ce bel objet, nous avons décidé de le réimprimer en sérigraphie également. Un petit livre peuplé d'animaux aquatiques réels ou imaginaires, une méduse, un kraken, un poisson ... flottant dans l'obscurité des fonds marins, entre noir et bleu, illuminés d'orange fluorescent çà et là.]

Ein filigraner Traum aus Papier Im Garten der Schmetterlinge beginnt ein neuer Zyklus von Wandel und Erwachen. Für die kleinen Raupen ist es Zeit, sich einzuhüllen und als Schmetterlinge neu geboren zu werden. Auf den Seiten des Pop-up-Genies Philippe UG entfaltet sich diese schon oft erzählte Metamorphose verblüffend neu. Leichtigkeit, Lebensfreude und Farbpracht entstehen aus der Verbindung von zarten, scherenschnittartigen Pop-up-Elementen mit den typischen kräftigen Farben und dem klaren Design des bekannten französischen Künstlers. Ausstattung: 16 Seiten mit 7 farbigen Pop-up-Abbildungen

A young soldier thrown to the mercies of total war This is remarkable story of a young Rhinelander caught up in the whirlwind of war that raged in Europe in the early 19th century. As one of the smaller Germanic states his homeland was always in an ambiguous position between the great powers. His brother was a proud Cuirassier in Napoleon's Army and Philippe himself became-in his turn-a conscript in the French infantry sent to Spain to fight the British and Spaniards. Captured, he suffered privations and dangers until incarcerated on the prison island of Cabrera where he was offered release if he would change his allegiances by joining the Kings German Legion. The end of war found him in service of a military man with whom he travelled to the East in a British East Indiaman which struck a reef, throwing him into a hair-raising experience of shipwreck and the battle for survival.
