Tenderly by Giovanni Spera
Tenderly is an ongoing archive of drawings by Giovanni Spera. The book was typeset in Superness Modulo for both titling and interiors and Risograph printed by Atelier Tatanka in two colors (red and black) with a silkscreen-printed cover.
“Tenderly is a personal mirror of the present, conceived as a continuous struggle between good and evil”
Searching for balance, the subjects of the illustrations are marked by constant shifts: opposites that at times find themselves collapsing into one another and, at others, drift apart almost definitively, becoming part of a broader framework. This persistent tension, shaped by a sense of indeterminacy, allows comforting and reassuring images to coexist with figures of violence and fear, offering a vision of reality that is transitory and fragile.
The perfect-bound publication has 178 pages measuring 14,5×20,5 cm , in 100 copies. It was printed in Italy and published by Tatanka Edizioni.
