Julie Desire: Lust for Life<br />
Julia Seyr<br />
There is nothing fantastical in Seyr’s comic strips. Minimally drawn,<br />
they display laconic humour, and, in their simplicity, get right to the<br />
point. Similar to a diary, Seyr’s alter-ego, Julie Desire, explains her banal<br />
everyday life. The stories become an entertaining bit of fun through<br />
simplistic line drawings: Julie’s wishes and desires, her listlessness or<br />
the struggle with the creative process, which distract from the random<br />
amusements – all of it is a theme, as well as partying, googling friends,<br />
or losing oneself in thought about the many possibilities in life. With an<br />
epilogue by Michael Baers.<br />
Also available in a Limited Edition of 30 copies with a signed and<br />
numbered drawing (10.5 x 13.5 cm, ink on paper), £48.00.<br />

Sensitive City<br />
Studio Azzurro<br />
Sensitive City is the exhibition created by Studio Azzurro for the 2010<br />
Universal Expo in Shangai. The theme, “Better City, Better Life”, invites<br />
the countries taking part to consider the future of the city and to<br />
suggest alternatives to contemporary urbanization. With Sensitive City,<br />
Italy has decided to explore the quality of its small and medium centres.<br />
Six Italian cities have been selected because they represent examples<br />
of an harmonious form of urban development that would seem in direct<br />
contrast to the frenetic rhythms, the air and the noise pollution of the<br />
most contemporary metropolis. The research that Studio Azzurro has<br />
developed in the exhibition and in this book, through the six cities and<br />
the voices of their inhabitants, represents an attempt to preserve the<br />
human dimension within an urban reality which sometimes would seem<br />
very difficult to sustain.
