Created in the 1960s, The Party takes place in the Hamptons. It's attended by captains of industry, tycoons, magnates, moguls, and various undistinguishable fat cats, luxuriating in their tuxedos, evening gowns, and prattling small talk. The depiction of one grotesquerie after another ― often couples ― cavorting through the haze of booze and caviar, with the occasional wanton display of sybaritically libidinal impulse. Ungerer accompanies each full-page image with a hilarious, hand-lettered caption, which provides the characters' names and a brief deadpan description of their social standings, creating a dissonance between image and text.

Paperback. Etat : Good. Two years after he published The Underground Sketchbook in 1964, Tomi Ungerer conceived The Party - a take-down of the super rich, as savage as anything George Grosz or Ralph Steadman put on paper. Each full page or spread is accompanied by a hilariously incongruous caption, lettered in the author's hand, creating an irreconcilable dissonance between image and text. Each image is a masterpiece of hideousness, the book itself a succession of smug, bloated, drooling, lascivious, ostentatious monsters. In The Party, Ungerer's unleashes one of the most caustic moral imaginations of any cartoonist, each slashing ink line dipped in scorn. N° de réf. du vendeur 00109380979
