Explications.Nous avons le plaisir de vous confirmer qu'en ce jour du 5 octobre 2011, le carnet Sketchtravel est disponible dans toutes les bonnes librairies françaises, sur l'ensemble de l'hexagone, dans sa version "standard". La version "De Luxe" sera disponible le 26 octobre 2011. Nombreux sont ceux qui s'interrogent sur la différence entre les deux versions. La première est à 28 euros, la seconde à 150 euros. Il est légitime de s'interroger sur une telle différence de prix. Explications.<br />
Les éditions du Chêne sont reconnues pour leur niveau d'exigence élevé quand à la qualité d'impressions, la qualité du papier, les finitions maniaques. Cela assoit leur réputation et aucun de leurs ouvrages ne déroge à cette règle. Ainsi, même la version dite "standard" répond à ses critères d'exigences élevés.<br />
<br />
Dans la version standard : l'ensemble des contributions commentées par les artistes, les photos des relais, les liens vers les sites des artistes, leurs bios, les avant-propos des organisateurs, des historiens et journalistes Fabien Simode (L'Oeil magazine) qui apporte son éclairage au regard de l'histoire de l'Art, et Charles Salomon, qui en sa qualité de journaliste et historien de l'animation, rappelle le contexte dans lequel l'aventure s'est déroulé et la force symbolique de l'initiative.<br />
<br />
Dans la version de Luxe :<br />
-L'ouvrage est reproduit à l'identique. Une mallette avec dorure enveloppe et sacralise définitivement l'objet. Impression avec gaufrage du logo, réplique à l'identique du carnet original (presque à s'y méprendre) livret supplémentaire à part contenant les photos et commentaires et aussi un tiré à part de la contribution de Nicolas de Crécy. Tirage limité à 2000 exemplaires.<br />

is best known for the character design for the animated film: Blood,
the last Vampire. He defined himself as a "rakugaki" artist, someone who
draws a little everywhere, all the time, without thinking too much. He
is indeed very prolific: one of his sketch collections,
"Rakuga King", has more than 1000 pages.</span></span></h6>
