Press. (Straus Media Newspapers) - with never before seen behind-the-scenes New York Stories with Day in the Life and Accidental Tourist Observations. IN TOON REVIEWS: "Having known Peter over 40 years since our adolescence he has always been an exceptionally gifted artist, able to work in virtually any medium, with ferocious intelligence and boundless imagination. His aesthetic vision, his genius, and his enduring originality make him one of the most exciting artists of our times. "Holt Mccallany Actor/Writer/Producer – 100s of TV and Film Roles - Bill Tench of MINDHUNTER “Peter Pereira is a sharp and savvy observer of New York City life. In his whimsical Toons, Pereira captures snapshots and soundbites from the streets, shops and restaurants around town that others often miss. He’s a terrific reporter and artist – it is always a delight to have his work in our newspapers.” Alexis Gelber Editor in Chief, Straus News Manhattan Former Editor-in-Chief Newsweek International "Peter Pereira is a multi-talented New York artist and photographer. His work is unique and powerful. I always enjoy his artistic endeavors and I'm sure you will too!" Alan Merrill Musician/Composer – Author of “I Love Rock n Roll” “Peter Pereira is a unique and creative storyteller. His accidental tourist drawings of everyday experiences are original hybrids of photography, drawing, painting, and presented within the idiom of comics. While collaborating with Peter on a series of stop motion animation stills from my series of Alice in Dystopia, the artistic dialogue between us and our works was a very rewarding experience.” Jeanne Jaffe – Professor Emeritus in Fine Arts from University of the Arts in Philadelphia -Director of International Programs at the Jaffe Center for Book Arts “Peter is a good soul! He’s both fun and funny and I find him and his Cartoon Universe to be irreverent and relevant all at the same comic time!!”Franne Lee – an Obie and Tony Awardee with an Emmy for creating the iconic looks of such SNL characters as the Bees, and the Coneheads. "An amusing collection of New York City moments diversely illuminated by a multi- talented author. I especially enjoyed the areas that focused on the Upper East Side. It was fun to see familiar locales and neighborhood characters. ”David H. Reuss Treasurer – New York Society of Illustrators "Peter Pereira's cartoons and photoons show that magic that is all around us but that we often don't recognize or acknowledge, filtered through Pereira's sensitive eye. It is a heightened reality that makes the normal extraordinary."-- David KorenFounder, FIGMENT Arts New York and International“ ‘Cartoons’ doesn’t do Peter’s ingenious artwork justice. Eye-catching and on point, he decries how animals are being exploited—from giraffes killed for “sport” to fish dying on pet-store shelves—and turns a light on our kinship with all of them. It’s true: A picture is worth a thousand words.” Ingrid Newkirk/Tracy Reitman PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) “The Easter Eggs never cease! IN TOON works well…nice flow of Images and Ideas. Takes you through the eyes of many viewpoints. “ Chris Teracino - Manhattan Fan and Friend Toons, toons, cartoons, Peter Pereira brings to the reader images of joyous neighborhood life starting with the Yorkville section of Manhattan, New York City featuring neighborhood joints such as Logos Bookstore, Dorians Seafood Market among others as well as showing the hustle bustle of York Avenue, a wonderful cartoon vision of the present soon to be the past as time marches on.

What Am I Doing Here?
Author: Abner Dean
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1681370492
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
What Am I Doing Here? is a startling masterwork by one of the forgotten innovators of American comics. In 1945, after more than a decade as a commercial illustrator—drawing advertisements and cartoons for Life, Time, Esquire, Newsweek, and many other publications—Abner Dean invented a genre all his own: One might call it the Existential Gag Cartoon. He used the elegant draftsmanship and single-panel format of the standard cartoons of the day, but turned them to a deeper, stranger purpose. With an inimitable mixture of wit, earnestness, and enigmatic surrealism, Dean uses this most ephemeral of forms to explore the deepest mysteries of human existence. What Am I Doing Here?, Dean’s second book and perhaps his best, depicts a world at once alien and familiar, in which everyone is naked but acts like they’re clothed—a world of club-wielding commuters and byzantine inventions, secret fears and perverse satisfactions. Through it all strolls (or crawls, or floats, or stumbles) Dean’s unclad Everyman, searching for love, happiness, and the answers to life’s biggest questions. This NYRC edition is a jacketed hardcover with extra-thick paper, and features brand-new, restored scans of the original artwork throughout.
