The making of

The making of / Brecht Evens, Translated by Laura Watkinson & Michele Hutchinson, 218 pgs.

A successful artist is invited to produce something in a small town first biennial, a planned festival that will focus on art.  The artist wants to get the locals involved but may have taken on more than he can manage.  In a swirling water color style, the story unfolds with characters delineated by colors, their dialog in matching tones.  Lots of little stories occur on the sidelines and you wonder if the project will ever be completed.  Sometimes hard to follow, you will pick this up for the art, not the story.
