Words Are Pictures: Writing and Drawing Weimar Berlin
Friday, February 9, 2024
6:30 PM
Society of Illustrators
Cartoonist Jason Lutes and illustrator Nora Krug discuss how Lutes conceived, researched, wrote, and drew a 550-page graphic novel about the city of Berlin between 1929 and 1933—a process that took 22 years. Along the way, they discuss the greatest influences on his storytelling, from Ursula Le Guin’s A Wizard of Earthsea to Wim Wenders’s Wings of Desire, and what happens when we listen closely to history.
