Caroline Sury

Caroline Sury is a graphic artist/illustrator, comics creator and musician, who runs the underground publishing house "Le Dernier Cri" in Marseille. They produce wildly beautiful silk-screened publications (books and posters, as well as the magazine Hōpital Brut) and hard-core animated films filled with artwork by various known and unknown art brut/visionary artists (Caroline also contributed the sculptured puppet animation in their films). Caroline studied fine arts in Bordeaux. In the early nineties, she made several silk-screened portfolios, including Dog Time, Scènes d'un Cirque and Bête Verte. She worked on a number of "comics travel-notebooks", such as Le stylo a strip-tease and Holidays in Blooby land. With the work Frida Gastro, an account of Caroline's gastrointestinal infection in all its horrific detail, she began exploring the autobiographical genre. She appeared in journals such as Lapin, Stronx, Strapazin, The Monstrous and Scrap. She participated in Comix 2000 and published an illustration in each issue of the Weekly Marseille, the weekend supplement of Provence, from the origin of this title to the redesign in 2006. You can see a fresco of her in Paris at the bar "Le Soleil" Boulevard of Ménilmontant. Two comics, Bébé 2000 and Cou tordu are published with the independent editor, L'association.
