Cutely forgettable little story painted in a modern-expressionist style, about a dog who jumps on a train, has a weird adventure in space, gets turned into a talking dog, becomes involved in world affairs, but never loses his heart and just wants to get back home and do doggy things again. I like the symbol-language everybody speaks and the colour freakouts used to express the olfactory canine world. Winner of the Max und Moritz Preis, which is a mighty endorsement. Hey! This counts as reading in German (the only words in the book are "Wau Wau!"), right? Ha ha. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
With his pioneering, wordless graphic novel, Space Dog, Hendrik Dorgathen has been hailed as the first illustrator to bridge the gap between comics and art. Space Dog is the visual tale of a red, nameless dog who starts his life like many farm dogs - in a cushy barn with a litter of brothers and sisters. One day he wanders off the farm, jumps a train to the big city and before he knows it he has been transformed from innocent farm dog to street wise dog-about-town. After a series of adventures Dog attracts the attention of NASA and is hand-picked to become the first dog in space. That's where the story really takes off. You can join Dog on his extra-terrestrial travels and meet the crazy friends he makes (canine, human and alien) in this superbly illustrated, colorful book - these pictures tell the story without the help of a single word. Hendrik Dorgathen is a lecturer at the School of Art Design, in Kassel, Germany. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The titular dog is a red, square shaped creature. The artwork that takes him from the farm, to the city, to the lab, to space and back reminds me of a cross between 1950s commercial art and a quilt. ( )
