MISTER HORIZONTAL & MISS VERTICAL

 


A brilliant conceptual graphic
story about how we get our stripes of character and identity


How parents shape our own becoming is the premise, explored with remarkable subtlety and ingenuity, behind
Mister Horizontal & Miss Vertical (public library) by French writer Noémie Révah and Italian illustrator Olimpia Zagnoli.


This beautiful celebration of art and science was inspired by French poet and photographer René Maltête’s iconic image of a boardwalk-strolling family’s visual metaphor for genetics.
