Extraordinary graphic art books by Juanjo Oller of Milimbo, a small publishing house in Spain. His use of bold forms and brilliant positive/negative relationships coupled with the beautiful stylized simplicity and intelligence of the artwork is visually arresting. Not to mention keen use of cardboard in these 3D forms seen here for example. Juanjo’s portfolio is dense; it was rather difficult to narrow the selections down for this post. I strongly encourage you to visit his site(s) to see much more including books, posters and prints, postcards, original art, etc. for sale in the Milimbo shop.
Revisiting the oral tradition through the images that evoke stories of tales like Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel and The Three Bears. Milimbo presents his particular vision of these stories with images. A trip to the memories and passages of collective imagination.
