More Kovarsky...

In the simplest way Kovarsky has the ability to express both the inner and outer life of the people he creates in his cartoons. I love this one; simple and yet very funny at the same time, it makes everyday life interesting.

An Anatol Kovarsky...

I like the simplicity of the his cartoons...and how he combines everyday life with the current art scene of the time. This is from the book Kovarsky's World, published in 1956.

Anatol Kovarsky

Anatol Kovarsky was a cartoonist for the New Yorker back in the 50s. My parents had this book of his and I can remember looking through it often. I was fascinated by his drawings and the delicate intricacy of his line.He drew people from all over the world and what he brought out in his cartoons was how we all are the same. From the same family. I like the way these people are self contained and at the same time out there.
