A treasury of the prolific, legendary Italian filmmaker's drawings or, as he himself described them, scribbles, rushed and ungrammatical notes. Only they are much more. It's a deep dive into the colorful, extravagant, and visionary mind of the genius, and we couldn't be happier that it's back in print in such an appropriately voluptuous edition. This new edition coincides with the centenary of Fellini's birth and a traveling exhibition on the director. --INDULGE MAGAZINE This is a highly colorful journey into the boundless territory of a film director genius's imagination. It is a work that added a fundamental element to the study of Federico Fellini and his creative experience from the late 1960s until 1990, based on his prolific diaries. --SOCIETY TEXAS Internationally renowned filmmaker Federico Fellini found his mature, oneiric style after delving into Jungian psychology in the early 1960s. Taking to recording his dreams around this time (between the filming of La Dolce Vita and 8 1/2), he filled two notebooks with drawings that straddle the surreal and the comic. These felt-tip renderings find a lavish home in this substantial book. --MYDOMAINE.COM
