Abstract
KRAUSE, Flavia M. J.. Paralelismos entre ilustradores de libros para niños: Vladimir Lébedev y Ayax Barnes. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2023, n.124, pp.310-336. Epub July 07, 2023. ISSN 1853-3523. http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi124.4428.
Vladimir Lebedev (1891-1967) adhered to historical vanguard movements for the creation of children’s book images that were part of a special publication program held during the Russian Revolution. My hypothesis is that his work influenced that of Ayax Barnes (1926-1994), an Argentine illustrator who took part in innovative children’s books projects in Argentina in the 60s and 70s.
Through my analysis, I intend to show that, in spite of the fact that they were far from each other, both in time and space, there are parallelisms in terms of their aesthetic choices, the art movements that influenced them, and the communicative intention of their illustrations, which were socially and politically committed.
