AN ALPHABETIC ANTHOLOGY OF CURIOSITIES FROM HERGÉ’S ADVENTURES OF TINTIN

The object of this Tintin A-Z is to select details and facts that may be less familiar or even unknown, and which throw a new perspective on this remarkable reporter and his adventures. It is inevitably a highly subjective, arbitrary and personal view.  Michael Farr (born 1953) is a British expert on the comic series The Adventures of Tintin and its creator, Hergé. He has written several books on the subject, including the best-selling Tintin, The Complete Companion, as well as translating many others into English. A former reporter, first for Reuters and then The Daily Telegraph, he travelled around the world as a foreign correspondent. After meeting Hergé, Farr started writing books about Tintin. Farr was the first to gain full access to the files and material Hergé had used in developing the Tintin stories.

Exhibition Catalog - Hergé: THE EXHIBITION

Who doesn't know Tintin? But who really knows Hergé? How did Hergé conceive his stories? How did he come up with the idea of drawing a reporter with a toupee? Why did he try his hand at painting? Did Hergé resemble his characters? Why didn't he continue The Adventures of Jo, Zette and Jocko? What is the Hergé style? These and other questions are part of this catalog - or "paper exhibition" - which includes great treasures from the collections of the Hergé Museum: original drawings by the author, sketches, photographs and archival documents. Through a unique journey, we enter the artistic universe of a brilliant and multifaceted artist, capable of using all the media at his disposal to create compositions ranging from illustration to comics, through advertising, press, fashion design and the plastic arts. The lavishly illustrated book includes a prologue by musician Julián Hernández and pages dedicated to the adventures of Tintin and Hergé in Spain by Joan Manuel Soldevilla Albertí, a specialist in Hergé's work. Discover the artist who has captivated millions of readers from 7 to 77 years old all over the world!

Geo - Tintin C'est L'Aventure - Nº11 French (2021)

This new issue explores Hergé's relationship with the animal world, as his interest in and compassion for animals took shape after Tintin in the Congo. But long before the emergence of movements for nature and animal protection, Hergé clearly expressed the respect that Tintin has for the lives of animals, both wild and domestic. In issue number 11 of this collection and in the company of his inseparable Snowy, Tintin investigates the state of the animal world today, so threatened by man and his excesses.
