Nel corso del NY Comics & Picture-story Symposium tenuto a New York lo scorso novembre Peter Blegvad ha presentato il suo splendido testo Imagine, Observe, Remember (Uniformbooks, 2020) via Zoom. L'intervento è conservato su YT: “Forty-five years ago, when I began doing comparative drawings of things imagined, observed, and remembered, I was an illustrator looking for a story to illustrate. Something with a beginning, middle and end. ‘Imagine, Observe, Remember’ is what I came up with. It began as a way to think about illustration. It became a way of using illustration to think about imagining, observing and remembering. It’s a kind of phenomenology project, a way to look at different ways of looking and seeing, using the means at my disposal, using myself as subject.”
