Executive summary:
There are too many cartoonists in the world to count. However, there are few world-class humorists. Among these world humorists, Argentina in South America deserves two seats, namely Gino and Modilo, who were born in the same month of the same year.
This album will introduce the cartoonist Keno and his representative works Mongolian Medicine, Between the Sexes and the comic series Mafalda.
Zino, whose original name was Hawking Salvador Labado, was born in Mendoza, Argentina in August, 1932, and later settled in Buenos Aires. Gino's uncle is a painter who paints commercial advertisements. Keno was deeply influenced by him since he was a child. When he was young, Gino studied at the Buenos Aires School of Fine Arts, and later took painting as a career. 1964 On September 29th, Gino published his series of comic masterpieces "Mafalda" in the capital Buenos Aires. In March of the following year, he opened a cartoon column of "Mafalda" in Le Monde, and became famous from then on. 1968, Mafalda published a comic book in six languages. Since then, the cartoon images of Mafalda and his friends created by Zino can be seen everywhere in the world. In addition to this serial cartoon, Gino also created a large number of single cartoons and comic books, and published comic books respectively, among which the best-selling book in the world is "Who hung a chandelier in the ancient forest?" ","Mongolian Medicine "and" Between the Sexes ",these excellent works have established Keno's leading position in the world.
Mafalda, the hero of Mafalda, is a little girl from an ordinary family. Her father is an employee of an insurance company and her mother is a housewife. Mafalda is a thoughtful child and an ideal figure in the author's mind. She cares about current affairs, loves to think, has a sense of justice, and is always worried about the problems that human beings will encounter. Besides, she has a quirk of hating soup. Mafalda is surrounded by a group of very interesting and lovely friends: Mafalda's good friend Philip, who is honest, upright, imaginative and doesn't like going to school. He is a martial arts fan, always likes to watch the comic book Lonely Hero, and hates soup as much as Mafalda. Manorine is the child of a businessman. Influenced by his family, he is full of business stories. He can explain all the problems in the world with money and be laughed at everywhere. Susanna is an arrogant little girl. She fantasizes about becoming a rich wife and the mother of a famous doctor in the future. She looks down on the poor, and her decadent ideas are often attacked by Mafalda. Miguel is a pretentious little boy. He always thinks that he will be a great man in the future. In addition, a few years after Mafalda was serialized, Mafalda met another kid named "Freedom" while vacationing at the seaside. Later, Mafalda added a little brother. This group of children with different faces and personalities live together every day, and each has its own views and opinions. Sometimes they talk loudly, and sometimes they quarrel endlessly over the little things in life. In fact, Mafalda is more than just a children's book. The author has clearly marked it as an adult book in the comic book Mafalda. This serial work is seen in newspapers every day, and the author has to explain his views through the mouth of the little protagonist. Although each small character has his own distinct personality, he has mature thinking, and his ideas and opinions have his own tendency.
In the cartoons "Mongolian Doctor" and "Between the Sexes", Gino exaggerates the subtleties of human nature in a playful way. The material looks ordinary, but it has far-reaching significance. Works often make people laugh and chew other unspeakable flavors, which makes people feel that they are laughing at themselves rather than others. Some people say that a good cartoon is like an olive with endless aftertaste, such as Gino's cartoons "Mongolian Doctor" and "Between the Sexes".
I was deeply impressed by the magnificent scenes and ingenious ideas of Sang Bei's cartoons, the smooth and free lines of Bretschel's cartoons, and the rich and mysterious original romantic atmosphere of Modilo's cartoons, while the sharp sarcasm and spicy satire of Zhi Nuo's cartoons were shocking. He is good at criticizing human nature with the keen eyes of onlookers and analyzing the lives of all beings. This feature runs through the series of comics such as Mongolian Doctor, Between the Sexes and Mafalda, as well as other works of Keno.
Gino is very good at using exaggerated techniques in plot design or cartoon image building and action, thus obtaining strange artistic effects. For example, in "Mafalda", it is painted that primary school students are tired of learning, which is an exaggerated plot in which primary school students cry into a river in front of the school on the first day of school (P.2 13), and it is also a satire on Manorine's shoddy and mercenary businessman's misdeeds in Ma Nuoluo store. By opening the lid of the food, the food stinks and kills flies (P.289) and the expired sausage is hard enough to be nailed into a hammer (P.200005). In terms of modeling, the cartoon characters in Keno's works are not only distinctive, but also extremely exaggerated and full of comic flavor. For example, in Mafalda, Keno painted Mafalda and his friends with their heads held high, delicate and firm like scattered and jumping beans. When they are happy, their mouths can be clear. When they are angry, their eyes are as big as two bells, and their mouths are so big that they occupy half of their faces. The same is true of cartoon characters' movements, such as carrying their hands like Mafalda's adult, and leaning their heads against the wall like a sick chicken with a cold in Manorine. The action is exaggerated to be lovely and vivid, and it is wonderful.
Commenting on comic works has always tended to "emphasize meaning over skill" and "three points of skill and seven points of meaning". There is a saying that humorous artistic conception has its lofty thoughts and famous works, which is not unreasonable. However, the works of humor masters must be excellent in "meaning" and "technique", otherwise they cannot be called masters. Gino's cartoons have both "meaning" and "technique", which are both good and good, and there are few shoddy works. This comic book is the best example.
Reading comics is a matter of different opinions. Let's leave more space for readers to savor. I hope more people can get enlightenment and enjoyment from this rich and heavy cartoon.
