Bobby Moore/Pele photo to get artistic makeover thanks to Oscar acclaimed UK painter Submitted by: yfppublishing.com Wednesday, 14 April 2010 Press Release Wednesday 14th April 2010 Mutual Respect/Iconic 1970 Pele & Bobby Moore football photo gets artistic makeover One of the most iconic and endearing sporting photographs ever taken – of footballers Pele and Bobby Moore swapping shirts - is to get an artistic makeover thanks to a renowned artist whose previous work was made into an Oscar and BAFTA-winning film. What’s more you have the opportunity to own a limited-edition print version of the new painting. British artist Richard Piers Rayner illustrated 300-pages of the book ‘Road to Perdition’ which was adapted for the screen by Sam Mendes in 1992 and starred Tom Hanks, Paul Newman and Daniel Craig. Such was his work that Steve Spielberg, who produced the movie, said: “This is great. I don’t even need storyboards. All the work’s been done for me.” Now, football fan Rayner has turned his talent to one of the most famous sporting pictures ever taken. Stockton-born, Rayner has also worked for DC Comics in America on Hellblazer, Batman, Swamp Thing and Legion, and for Marvel illustrating Dr Who, X-Men and Captain America, has now turned to his love of football to give his unique artistry to this memorable image. Rayner says: “I loved the rare and irresistible opportunity to recreate one of sports defining images. In a brief moment at the end of the game opponents acknowledge the sportsmanship of their contest. There is no better reason to call it the ‘Beautiful Game', and no better challenge than to bring all that colour and drama back to life.” The original photograph, taken by John Varley at the Estadio Jalisco Stadium in Guadalajara, Mexico 7 Jun 1970, shows Bobby Moore and Pele swapping shirts following England’s Group C defeat at the hands of Brazil. Quoted as being Bobby Moore’s ‘favourite photo’, the then world champions were effectively handing over the baton of world supremacy to champions-elect and the world’s greatest-ever player. This limited edition ‘Mutual Respect’ print (33cm x 44cm) of the painting by Richard Piers Rayner is available for £175, and includes courier dispatch and first-class packing. These prints are not framed but come fully mounted and ready for framing on high quality art paper. Each copy is signed by the artist and numbered 1-500. There will be just 500 limited-edition prints available and each comes with a certificate of authentication. A black-wooded framed version is available for £225 (inclusive of delivery).

A Module Compiled By
A Module Compiled by: Dr. Ekawati Marhaenny Dukut, M.Hum. FACULTY OF LANGUAGE AND ARTS SOEGIJAPRANATA CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY SEMARANG 2016 ii GRAPHIC NOVELS MODULE FOREWORD In the Faculty of Language and Arts of Soegijapranata Catholic University, students majoring in Linguistics or Literature are not only required to speak English actively but also to write actively. There are a number of writing courses to be taken, but all of them are geared so their thesis writing meets the minimum academic standard. This module, however, is created for students who want to write creatively. Not only will students have a mastery of writing good narratives, but students can develop them in accordance to the theory of writing a story that is developed into a novel with an interesting plot like that learned from the Introduction of Literature course. As the name suggests, this Graphic Novels module aims to provide students the opportunity of creating their own graphics, too. For that purpose, students are advised to exercise their drawing skills either in free hand or by use of various electronic media and drawing softwares, such as the Adobe Flash or Coreldraw. I would like to thank the writer of this module for her time and effort of creating such a creative writing course and module. Finally, I do hope that students do benefit from this module. Angelika Riyandari Dean of the Faculty of Language and Arts GRAPHIC NOVELS MODULE iii SYLLABUS Course description: This course especially prepares students to make graphic novels/ comic books, i.e. a book that more or less follows the Manga cartoon drawing of the Japanese people.

Over the course of three decades most historians familiar with the medium have recognized that American comics, since becoming a mass-cultural product in 1939, have matured beyond their humble beginnings as a monthly publication for children.

Wandering Into the Wasteland: White American Masculinities in the Apocalyptic Science Fiction Road Narrative
Wandering into the Wasteland: White American Masculinities in the Apocalyptic Science Fiction Road Narrative Heather Wintle Submitted for the degree of PhD University of East Anglia School of Film, Television and Media Studies Date of submission: 9th October 2013 Word count: 99 939 words This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Wandering into the Wasteland: White American Masculinities in the Apocalyptic Science Fiction Road Narrative This thesis examines the portrayal of American white male subjects within the apocalyptic science fiction road narrative, focusing on two visual media in which this genre hybrid features prominently: film and comics. The study builds upon an embryonic body of scholarship addressing several structural, iconographic and thematic connections between the road genre and apocalyptic science fiction. In responding to the call for further research into the road genre’s spread across media, the study observes that apocalyptic road films and comics complicate the dominant critical narrative regarding the road movie’s increasing emphasis upon racially and sexually diverse travellers. Interrogating this discrepancy with an awareness of its ramifications for female, black and queer secondary characters’ representation, the thesis demonstrates how the apocalyptic science fiction road narrative has been persistently and primarily used as a forum for examining, indulging and critiquing various conceptualisations of American white masculinity and associated desires and anxieties.

Vol. 3 (2011) | pp. 183-197 http://www.ucm.es/info/amaltea/revista.html THE MYTHIC HERO AT THE WHEEL: THE NARRATIVE PATTERN OF THE QUEST MOTIF IN SAM MENDES'S ROAD TO PERDITION CRISTINA FLORES MORENO UNIVERSIDAD DE LA RIOJA [email protected] Article received on 01.02. 2011 Accepted on 19.05. 2011 ABSTRACT It is the main purpose of this paper to explore the narrative pattern of the quest motif in Sam Mendes's Road to Perdition (2002). The study of the narrative structure in Sam Mendes's movie will illustrate that the quest constituent in the road movie genre sometimes acquires the form of a contemporary ‘mechanized’ version of the archetypal hero-adventure as it was described by Campbell in A Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949). The movie is based on a graphic novel by Max Allan Collins and Richard Piers Rayner, though Mendes significantly departs from it to provide the story with a mythic weight that was not present in Collins’s work. KEYWORDS Quest motif, road movie, film adaptation, Sam Mendes, Road to Perdition. EL HÉROE MÍTICO AL VOLANTE: EL PATRÓN NARRATIVO DE LA BÚSQUEDA EN CAMINO A LA PERDICIÓN, DE SAM MENDES RESUMEN El principal objetivo de este artículo es explorar el patrón narrativo del motivo de la búsqueda en Camino a la perdición (2002), de Sam Mendes. El estudio de la estructura narrativa en la película de Sam Mendes ilustra que el componente de búsqueda en el género de la road movie se manifiesta como una versión contemporánea y “mecanizada” del héroe arquetípico de aventuras descrito por Campbell en El héroe de las mil caras (1949).

(18 plates) 10 x 9 / 72 pages $24.95 Catalog Sequence: 6 ABC Art Books Canada/Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal ‘For all her formal brilliance, it is Schutz’s ethical probing, her lucid parsing of contemporary culture, that truly animates her art.’ Daniel Balasco, Art in America. Informed by early twentieth-century avantgardes, principally cubism and expressionism, Dana Schutz’s art is an extraordinary and joyful mash- up where a multitude of references and allusions collide. The exhilarating results can be understood as a productive conversation with the history of painting and as a compelling testament to painting’s complex and unending death throes. With its conflations of Géricault, horror films, Ensor, Picasso, Guston, porn, and pop culture, her work appears to counter and confront the imperious Internet information colossus, where everything is available at once. This fully bilingual publication accompanies an original exhibition of new and recent work and documents Schutz’s first exhibition in Canada. In English and French.

Reviews Films Road to Perdition Rating *** Road to Perdition Is the Latest Film by Sam Mendes, Director of the Oscar –Winning Film American Beauty
REVIEWING A FILM OR BOOK 1) Quickly read this film review Reviews films Road to Perdition rating *** Road to Perdition is the latest film by Sam Mendes, director of the Oscar –winning film American Beauty. Adapted from a novel by Max Allan Collins and Richard Piers Rayner, Road to Perdition is extremely dark and atmospheric. Like a Greek tragedy, it follows the predestined fates of the main characters on their road to perdition (or hell). The film is Set in a wintry 1930s Chicago and tells the story of a hitman called Mike Sullivan (Tom Hanks) and his mafia boss John Rooney (Paul Newman). Sullivan looks up to Rooney as a ‘father figure’. However, when Sullivan’s son witnesses a gangland killing, Rooney turns against him, and both father and son are forced to go on the run. Visually, the film is quite stunning. There are some impressive special effects , but what strikes you most are the dark images of rain and shadow. These create a heavy atmosphere of bleakness and fear. In many scenes brown and black are the dominant colours, Which often make the film look like a well-crafted oil painting. The acting is too first-rate, with both Hanks and Newman giving completely convincing performances. However, although it is wonderfully directed and acted , road to Perdition is not a gripping film. The plot is quite slow and the ending is totally predictable . But what the film really lacks is human warmth-the characters ultimately fail to move us. To sum up , Road to Perdition is beautifully filmed gangster movie.
