A tribute to the late Steven Parrino

"Black Noise" is a boxset of 32 publications conceived according to the model of American comic books.Each volume is designed by a different artist, linked in some way to Steven Parrino, by projects and exchanges, by friendship, by reciprocal inspiration. "Black Noise" celebrates a format that Steven Parrino was fond of, a culture that was close to him. The only constraint upon the authors invited in spring 2005 was the format and the title of the overall publication. Some directly evoke Steven Parrino's personality, whereas others produce a less referential contribution.
