Title: "Gaston Lagaffe: Pop-Street Gaffe"
Description
This work is a colorful and dynamic collage that celebrates Gaston Lagaffe (also known in Italy as Gastone), the brilliant, lazy, and clumsy employee created by Belgian cartoonist André Franquin, merging the aesthetics of printed paper with the rebellious energy of street art.
Chaos in the Editorial Office: The mosaic of panels perfectly summarizes the disastrous routine of the protagonist. We find Gaston with his unmistakable high-green turtleneck sweater, accompanied by his cat, his seagull, and his perpetually rickety and smoking blue car (a reworked Fiat 500). Historical supporting characters are not missing, such as the sweet Miss Jeanne and the irascible Mr. De Mesmaeker, whose contracts are constantly ruined.
The Words of the Comic: The work gives great prominence to lettering and the iconic onomatopoeia of the series. Dominating the scene are his legendary and perplexed "M'ENFIN?!", the unintelligible expletive "ROGNTUDJU!", as well as large-letter exclamations like "ZORGL!" and "LA GAFFE!", which emphasize the sense of sonic and visual ruckus.
Urban Contamination: The cleanliness of the classic drawing, characterized by Ben-Day dots typical of pop art, undergoes a true act of "author vandalism." The comic page is smeared with hand-written tags, fake graffiti, and heavy drips of spray paint in red, black, and blue, transforming a simple illustrated page into a fragment of an urban wall.
