Also, an interview with the photographer Pere Formiguera.

The people that make up this council of writing come from different fields -writers, librarians, editors, illustrators, critics...-, but we share in the interest and liking for texts and illustrations, especially in the genre of picture books, one of the most dynamic territories of aesthetic experimentation in recent years.
In Bloc our intention is to provide a space for analysis and reflection around the image and the word, projecting a special interest in the building of imaginary worlds in which text and image appear hand in hand.
In its pages will appear professionals interested in the genre and in its complimentary aspects, which are design, translation, photography or children’s and canonical literature.
So, in the pages a variety of creators will appear, who will offer reflections on different aspects of literature or graphics, and works will be presented that, in our opinion, offer components of quality, when not of excellence. We aspire that Bloc becomes that space of reference in which any professional can find visions, commentaries and analysis in accordance with their anxieties and worries.
We believe that Bloc, that will come out every six months, is a necessary publication that comes to cover a hole in the panorama of professional publications.  |  |
