★英國著名藝術出版社Thames & Hudson全新系列: The Illustrators
奧利佛・傑法是21世紀圖像書創作界的現象級人物，他的非凡職涯仍在持續拓展。年僅四十多歲的他，已出版多部廣受歡迎的作品，既是插畫家，也是圖文創作者。本書全面回顧他迄今的創作歷程，描繪他對環境的熱情，以及他對人類重大課題的探索，並呈現這些思考如何深刻影響他的創意與思想表現。
傑法的成就光彩奪目：他曾在英國與美國舉辦多場個展，並於2022年獲頒大英帝國員佐勳章(MBE)，表彰其對藝術的貢獻。更重要的是，他不斷突破繪本的界限，持續探索存在主題，無論是透過插畫，或是場域特定裝置與電影等其他媒介，都對繪本創作實踐產生深遠影響。
作為Thames & Hudson備受讚譽的「插畫家系列」(The Illustrators)新作，本書首次深入聚焦奧利佛・傑法
A phenomenon of 21st-century bookmaking, Oliver Jeffers has carved an extraordinary career that shows no sign of slowing. Still only in his forties, he has published an array of hugely popular books, both as illustrator and author–illustrator. This overview of his life and work – so far – charts his passion for the environment and his quest to understand humanity’s major challenges, and the impact this has had on his creative and intellectual output.
The list of Jeffers’s accomplishments is long and glittering: he has held numerous one-man shows, in both the UK and the USA, and was appointed an MBE in 2022 for services to the arts. Most importantly, however, he has tirelessly pushed the boundaries of what a picturebook can be. His regular exploration of existential issues – whether through illustration or other media such as site-specific installation or film – has exerted a major influence on the practice of authorial picturebook-making.
This addition to Thames & Hudson’s acclaimed Illustrators series is the first book to focus closely on Oliver Jeffers’s practice as an illustrator, offering an in-depth analysis of his processes, influences, styles and subjects as they have changed over time.
