</DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>How do objects summon memories? What do real images feel like? For decades, these types of questions have permeated the pages of Lynda Barry’s compositions, with words attracting pictures and conjuring places through a pen that first and foremost keeps on moving. What It Is demonstrates a tried-and-true creative method that is playful, powerful, and accessible to anyone with an inquisitive wish to write or to remember. Composed of completely new material, each page of Barry’s first Drawn & Quarterly book is a full-color collage that is not only a gentle guide to this process but an invigorating example of exactly what it is: “The ordinary is extraordinary.”</DIV></DIV>]]> 11646 4.29 5519 893 2008 4 0 false Mon Jun 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 09 15:40:57 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 16 20:51:18 -0700 2009
