Event HFC7
Event with Manuel Marsol
Finding one’s father in the stars
Venue: Zorro Rojo
Manuel Marsol’s (Spain) father passed away when he was just 11 years old. This event has left its mark on the work of this illustrator, who expresses his affection for his father through memories and through fantasy. He did so in the illustrated book Astro, an allegory about the love between a father and a son, told through the story of a stranded astronaut who finds himself on a distant planet under the care of an alien. And he has done so once again in El cielo en una estancia, where a photograph of a prison, in which a football is suspended in mid-air forever, serves as the catalyst for imagining celestial bodies and the harmony of the spheres, comets and stars.
