Gamerz 04
by Pedro Silva on January 8th, 2009
The excellent Game Art series of events Gamerz 04 continues! The fourth edition will take place in Aix-en-Provence, France between Jan 8 - Feb 6 2009. The event will feature 30 international artists, workshops, seminars and “immersive media dancing” (!). A must see. Here’s a teaser…
And here’s the official ’spiel’ from the organizers:
“What is going on when video games turn to be a medium that allows artists to create? When artists invest fi elds such as virtual universes, or network? When contemporary art meets entertaining and freaking universes? Back from Istanbul and for the fourth time, the international event GAMERZ spreads over the city of Aix-en-Provence, taking over three locations of contemporary art.
From early 2009, a real cultural tour emulates the city during a month, inviting the public to discover the new creation through a serie of exhibitions, meetings, and performances. Away of a simple festival, GAMERZ deploys a deep work over artistic creations and new interventions around creative processes. Realized in cooperation with Germany, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Turkey, Austria, England, and in collabo- ration with Second Nature association, M2F Créations is undertaking a real inter-cultural exchange and proposes an intense rendez-vous with contemporary art in the region of P.A.C.A.”.

Chip Kidd’s Batman Fandom Gets Arty in Bat-Manga
by Pedro Silva on January 8th, 2009
As associate art director at publishing house Alfred A. Knopf, Kidd designs book covers for authors both big and indie; as a writer, he worked with Dave Gibbons and Mike Essl to create the amazing Watching the Watchmen art book that documents the creation of the groundbreaking Watchmen comics.
For his own recently released brain-candy compilation, Bat-Manga! The Secret History of Batman in Japan, the 44-year-old comic-book historian delved into the Dark Knight’s long-lost Asian adventures of the ’60s at the hands of manga artist Jiro Kuwata. A loving exploration of a little-known cul-de-sac on the edge of the Batman universe, Bat-Manga became one of the coolest comics-related books of 2008.
If that’s not enough rock-star comic cred, Kidd’s even got his own band, Artbreak, with an in-the-works debut recording called Wonderground that’s aptly described by Kidd and his bandmate Mars Trillion as “Bowie crashing The Cars into Joy Division going 300 mph at 4 a.m. on Abbey Road.”
Wired.com caught up with Kidd for a quick e-mail chat about Bat-Manga, The Dark Knight, Watchmen and why Kuwata’s Japanese-style Dynamic Duo is just too good to be true.
