Puisqu’il n’a pas pu accéder au royaume du Ciel, il deviendra le seigneur de la Terre. Sa prochaine étape est le temple de Jérusalem, cité assiégée où Juifs et Romains semblent se faire la guerre depuis toujours. Mais face à ce nouvel adversaire, ils vont devoir unir leurs forces. Julius le prophète, le Romain converti, est sans doute le seul capable de les convaincre. Mais en aura-t-il le temps ? Car déjà, le ciel s’assombrit au pas des légions noires... Alex Alice nous offre enfin la conclusion en apothéose d’une série unique en son genre. Ambitieuse, profonde et épique, Le Troisième Testament – Juliusest une série magistrale à la croisée des genres, entre péplum, quête initiatique et fable ésotérique, portée par la puissance du dessin de Thimothée Montaigne, plus spectaculaire que jamais ! • BUSSI Michel - Mourir sur Seine T2 (Des Falaises) Un meurtre... Huit millions de témoins. Sixième jour de d'Armada 2008. Un marin est retrouvé poignardé au beau milieu des quais de Rouen ! Quel tueur invisible a pu commettre ce crime impossible ? Quel étrange pacte semble lier des matelots du monde entier ? De quels trésors enfouis dans les méandres de la Seine sont-ils à la recherche ? Quel scandale dissimulent les autorités ? Une implacable machination... qui prend en otage huit millions de touristes. Une course effrénée contre la montre avant la parade de la Seine. L'histoire de la navigation en Seine, stupéfiante et pourtant bien réelle, livre la clé de l'énigme. Les quais de Rouen, le pont Flaubert, le cimetière de Villequier, la chapelle Bleue de Caudebec-en-Caux, l'aître Saint- Maclou, l'hôtel de Bourgtheroulde, les rues médiévales de Rouen, les berges de la Bouille, la Marais Vernier... deviennent autant de scènes de cette enquête défiant l'imagination. • FILIPPI - Colonisation T1 (Glénat) 2 Jusqu'où l'humanité pourra-t-elle survivre ? Le futur. Pour faire face à une surpopulation devenue ingérable, l'humanité envoie une multitude de vaisseaux spatiaux à travers la galaxie. À leurs bords, des équipages de colons ayant pour but de permettre à l'homme de survivre, ailleurs. Quelque temps après le lancement de cet exode, une civilisation extraterrestre se manifeste : les Atils. Pacifistes et bienveillants, ils partagent avec les humains leur technologie de déplacement bien plus avancée et leur permettent de s'implanter avec eux sur une quantité d'autres mondes. Beaucoup des premières nefs demeurent alors introuvables, perdues dans l'immensité de l'espace. Le temps passant, la cohabitation avec les Atils s'avère ne pas être du goût de tous. Certains représentants des deux peuples finissent par se rassembler, allant jusqu'à essayer de capturer les nefs des premiers colons échouées dans l'univers pour vendre leur contenu à prix d'or sur le marché noir. On les appelle les Écumeurs. C'est pour retrouver les nefs des pr l'Agence forme ses unités d'élite dans laquelle Milla Aygon s'est engagée.

Ainsi que de ses amis. S’il est une chose qu’a réussi le mage dans la grande guerre qui a ravagé le monde d’Oscitan, c’est provoquer la 3 haine, la méfiance, la peur, le mépris, la discorde et beaucoup d’autre nobles sentiments. Devenu Maître- Inquisiteur après le conflit afin de lutter contre le crime, Obeyron n’obéit qu’à une seule maîtresse, la justice.

Les nostalgiques de Gaston Lagaffe s'y retrouveront ! • RODOLPHE Christian - Chez Adolphe T1 1933 (Delcourt) Le 30 janvier 1933, Adolf Hitler arrive au pouvoir en Allemagne. Ce jour-là, le bar au rez-de-chaussée de l'immeuble où réside le professeur Karl Stieg change de nom pour s'appeler Chez Adolf, patronyme du propriétaire. C'est aussi le jour où Karl décide de tenir un journal sans imaginer à quel point les années à venir vont impacter les habitants de son immeuble et le destin du monde. • SCOTTO Serge - Marcel Pagnol en BD : Jean de Florette (Grand angle) Pour se lancer dans la culture des œillets, le Papet et son neveu Ugolin ont besoin d'espace et surtout d'une source : un vrai trésor dans la chaude Provence. Dans l'espoir 4 d'acquérir à bas prix le terrain de leur voisin Pique-Bouffigue, Ugolin et le Papet profitent de la mort du vieux pour boucher la source et dévaloriser le lieu. La ferme semble disponible, mais l'héritier de la propriété arrive un jour avec sa femme et sa fille Manon. Il s'appelle Jean de Florette, il est bossu, vient "de la ville" et semble décidé à faire prospérer sa terre. Mais le Papet et Ugolin sont prêts à tout pour faire échouer son projet. • SFAR Joann - Aspirine – Un vrai bain de sang T2 (Rue de Sèvres) Quelques mois ont passé depuis la première aventure d’Aspirine et de ses complices. Ils connaissent mieux leurs pouvoirs, ils apprennent à maîtriser leur rage. Aspirine se défoule notamment dans son journal intime. Elle et Yidgor y vivent des aventures lugubres et dangereuses, l’une d’elles consiste à racheter des morts fraîchement pendus pour les réanimer et leur confier une mission des plus complexes... voler une larve de Dieu qui organise des séances de jouvence nauséabondes pour ses adorateurs. Alors que tous les candidats échouent, Dick, un gosse des rues, sorte de gavroche désespéré et couturé y parvient. Mais il ne se satisfera pas de son rôle de sous-fifre et fera tout pour récupérer son âme détenue par Yidgor. Ajoutez à ça un occultiste qui se la joue Belle au bois dormant et une momie ivre… Aspirine et ses amis ne veulent pas qu’on les traite de super-héros, ils considèrent qu’ils sont des méchants face à des personnes encore plus méchantes ! Comment tout cela ne finirait-il pas dans un bain de sang ? • SIMON Cédric - La curée (Les Arènes) À la fin d’une chasse à courre, pendant la curée, les chiens dévorent les entrailles de la bête tuée. «De l’or et de la chair», Émile Zola résumait ainsi La Curée. L’or, c’est Aristide Saccard. Ce bourgeois affairiste vorace veut saigner Paris et se repaître de l’argent qui coule dans les veines d’une capitale bouleversée par les travaux haussmanniens. Sans scrupules, il triche, vole, ment et manipule… même ses proches. La chair, c’est Renée, la seconde épouse de Saccard. Jeune femme comblée et courtisée, elle cherche à tromper son ennui en dilapidant sa fortune et en goûtant la jouissance de l’interdit. Or qu’y a-t-il de plus immoral que d’entretenir une relation fiévreuse avec un beau-fils que l’on a élevé ? À travers des dessins somptueux, Éric Stalner et Cédric Simon nous offrent une version sublimée et moderne de l’œuvre de Zola.

  • From M.C. Escher to Mass Effect
    Issue 02 – 2013 Journal –Peer Reviewed ATHANASIOS PETROVITS IT University of Copenhagen From M.C. Escher [email protected] & ALESSANDRO CANOSSA Northeastern University to Mass Efect [email protected] Impossible spaces and hyper-real worlds in video games. How can hyper- real worlds be designed and interpreted in a 2D, 2.5D and 3D virtual environment and how will this implementation afect the stereoscopic 3D video games of the future? Game developers, even during the early years of game design, have always searched for new and interesting ways of creating more elaborate, immersive and realistic environments for their video games. Even the MUD’s (multi-user dungeons), designed in the late 1970s, such as Roy Trubshaw’s MUD1, implemented such interesting ways of connecting their rooms as teleportation, paving the way for later developers to design and implement interesting and imaginative environments that border on the fantas- tic or the Hyper-real, as we will designate these worlds in this article. The term Hyper-real is used extensively by philosophers, such as Jean Bau- drillard and Umberto Eco; they use the term to distinguish reality from a simulation of reality, especially in cases of technologically advanced societies. In Baudrillard’s own words, hyper-reality is a simulation generated “by models of a real without origin or reality” (Baudrillard, 2000, p. 1). In this article, the term “Hyper-real worlds” will be used to describe worlds that are not that much fur- ther from what Baudrillard describes. These game worlds, although they have a connection to our reality, architectural structure or geographical coordinates, are defnitely un-realistic and without any origin in our world, comprised of fantas- tic creatures, alien architecture and geometrical and physical impossibilities.

Contact: [email protected] JJQ Picturing the Wake: Arcimboldo, Joyce, and His “Monster” Vaclav Paris University of Pennsylvania hrouded in its own obscurity, Finnegans Wake is a book we often think of as visually indistinct. We associate its world Swith Joyce’s near-blindness, with nighttime, and feel our way through, stumbling over words, listening for, rather than seeing, the path. For new readers in particular, the challenge of picturing Joyce’s scenes or characters is formidable. The problem is not that the visual is absent—any given page of Finnegans Wake burgeons with visual details—but rather that we do not or cannot focus on it. We lack a visual framework: a way of reconciling the many details into stable images. How can we see the Wake? What would a visual equivalent look like, and how might we employ it in introducing students to Joyce’s world? This essay attempts to address these questions, pro- posing the paintings of the Renaissance artist Giuseppe Arcimboldo as a model.1 This may seem counterintuuitive. Arcimboldo’s paint- ings, specific as they are, cannot be said to capture the whole world of the Wake, and they do not, in any real sense, illustrate Joyce’s words.

  • Tempera Painting
    Head for Art art for the everyday MENU Tempera Painting 29 APRIL 2016 ~ ALEID Last week our look into fresco painting revealed aspects of a demanding technique. This week it’s tempera technique that’ll make us marvel. Until the late 1400s (when oil painting took over) Medieval and Renaissance artists created images in tempera on panel. The panel is wood and the type used depended on local trees. Italian panel paintings are done on poplar; Flemish artists used oak and Germans oak, zr, lime and pine. Here’s the Italian Duccio (c. 1260-1318). Christ appears transzgured before apostles Peter, John and James. Moses is on the left of Christ, Elijah the right. This panel was part of a huge double-sided altarpiece called the Maesta completed for Siena Cathedral in 1311. These are the steps to making the magic happen: 1) Several planks of wood are glued together and secured with beams across the back. Using several planks reduces warping. The assembled panel is planed smooth. 2) The panel is covered in layers of white gesso (liquid plaster) to rezne the surface and make it non- absorbent. 3) The artist maps out his composition on the gesso. 4) Ground pigments (from minerals, plants, insects) are blended with water and egg yolk to create paint and the real work begins! This is Leonardo da Vinci’s Annunciation painted in tempera on panel. Tempera is an egg-based paint which may seem odd. But egg is stable and gives good consistency. It adheres to the gesso. Tempera’s big plus point is the richness of colour achieved.

  • Mathematics Education and Early Abstract Art
    Proceedings of Bridges 2013: Mathematics, Music, Art, Architecture, Culture Mathematics Education and Early Abstract Art Stephen Luecking School of Computer Science, Telecommunications and Information Systems DePaul University As a group, the artists educated near the turn of the 19 th and 20 th centuries possessed greater mathematical knowledge than expected of artists today, especially regarding constructive skills in Euclidean geometry. Educational theory of the time stressed such skills for students in general, who needed these to enter the workplace of the time. Mathematics teaching then emphasized the use of manipulatives, i.e., visual and interactive aids thought to better fix the student’s acquisition of mathematical skills. This visual training in mathematics significantly affected the early development of abstraction in art. This paper presents examples of this visual mathematics education and samples its effects on the development of abstract art in the first decades of the 20th century. Introduction Today’s art student can train with nary a nod to mathematics. Although art education remains affected by the innovations of mathematically, especially geometrically adept artists from nearly 100 years ago, its application of mathematical elements requires no substantive experience with mathematics. Instead the fledgling artists handle these elements procedurally. Perspective, for example, was part of the genesis of a sophisticated new geometry of projection during the Renaissance, but students learn to apply it by a set of procedures involving the determination of a horizon line and vanishing points and the construction of converging lines. Executing this set of procedures needs no knowledge of the underlying how and why of 3D objects mapped onto a 2D surface.

Fact sheet Museum Folkwang Press Release Uncannily Real – a major special exhibition on Italian painting of the 1920s on display at Museum Folkwang from 28 September. Essen, 27.9.2018 – The exhibition Uncannily Real: Italian Painting of the 1920s presents more than 80 paintings from Realismo Magico. This artistic movement emerged in Italy in the wake of the First World War, parallel to Neue Sachlichkeit in Germany. Outstanding works by key protagonists such as Felice Casorati, Antonio Donghi and Ubaldo Oppi are featured alongside influential paintings by Giorgio de Chirico and Carlo Carrà. This represents the first comprehensive presentation of these works in Germany, allowing visitors to rediscover this strand of Modernism. After the experiences of the First World War, in Europe and beyond, many artists returned to a realistic form of representation, definitively abandoning Expressionism. Picking up on the metaphysical painting of Giorgio de Chirico and Carlo Carrà and the rappel à l’ordre (call for a return to order) issued by Parisian Neo-Classicism, the artists cause time to stand still in their paintings. They imbue their realistic depictions with dream-like, uncanny, at times disturbing elements. The paintings depict their subject matter clearly and precisely, while retaining a cryptic quality to their atmospheres and themes. The result is the production of evocative works of outstanding painterly quality, often in dazzling colours.
