Continuous Cities 4: Cecilia by Leighton Connor.<\/em><\/p>\n Seeing Calvino<\/a> is the most recent of the illustration projects featured this week, a group effort by three artists\u2014Leighton Connor<\/a>, Matt Kish<\/a> and Joe Kuth<\/a>\u2014dedicated to picturing all 55 of the Invisible Cities. Matt Kish has been mentioned here before since he and I were among the many artists adapting literary works for The Graphic Canon<\/em> (2012), a huge three-volume endeavour edited by Russ Kick. (Matt chose Moby-Dick<\/em> while I worked on the rather less daunting Picture of Dorian Gray<\/em><\/a>.) The depictions for Seeing Calvino are bold, vivid, and almost abstract at times. The trio completed their Invisible Cities<\/em> project in April this year but there’s a promise on their Tumblr to commence work on an adaptation of Calvino’s astronomical fantasia, Cosmicomics<\/em>.<\/p>\n Thin Cities 4: Sophronia by Matt Kish.<\/em><\/p>\n Cities and the Sky 1: Eudoxia by Joe Kuth.<\/em><\/p>\n Elsewhere on { feuilleton } Previously on { feuilleton } Continuous Cities 4: Cecilia by Leighton Connor.
