Heinz Edelmann (1934-2009)






I just heard the sad news that the great artist and designer Heinz Edelmann died a few hours ago. Heinz was a marvellous and unjustly "unremembered" artist who influenced thousands of artists in the 1960's and 70's.
A delicate man with a wonderful, quiet sense of humour and in possesion of an enourmous culture. He'll be sadly missed.

Acabo de enterarme de la muerte hace unas horas del gran artista y diseñador grafico Heinz Edelmann. Heinz era un maravilloso artista injustamente olvidado pero que habia influenciado a miles de dibujantes en las decadas de los sesenta y setenta.
Era un hombre de gran delicadeza y un maravilloso y calmo sentido del humor ademas de una vasta y enciclopedica cultura. Lo echaremos mucho de menos.
