Serge Bloch
Illustrator, sometimes author of books and cartoons for little ones and grown-ups. Art director. I illustrate cultural and social topics for daily newspapers in France (Libération, Psychologies, La Vie, Enjeux-les Echos, Stratégies, le Nouvel Observateur, Marianne) and the United States (Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, NY Times ( and Magazine),Time magazine, New York Magazine, Boston Globe, GQ, Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg, Oxford University Press, Scholastic, National Geographic Magazine, Selling Power, Money magazine, The Ecologist (GB)). I also worked in institutional communication for the Festival de l'Oh (a festival about water), the French ministry of Health, the European Council as well as for pharmaceutical companies. I also worked in advertisement: Coca cola (packaging Lemon&nada, Naranja & nada …in Spain, Belgium ,brazil, Japan, Poland, Turkey…), Hermes, Publicis, Mondial Assistance( insurance), French ministery of ecology, RATP ( Subway of Paris), Ice breakers ( packaging of candies, USA), London Subway, Alsthom, etc… I can best define my work as "drawing with ideas," and I like to remain straightforward and unassuming so that the reader can grasp the ideas right away, without there being too many layers of style. I also try to throw in some humor. It can be called modest art. I’m sure that a second MOMA will be built one day "the Museum of Modest Art" a much smaller museum than the original one, where such work will be displayed! -Serge Bloch SHOWS 2013 Unexpected Encounters, Gallery Sun Contemporary, Seoul, Korea 2013 Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong 2011 Affordable Art Fair New York 2010 D’ici d’ailleurs, Galerie d’arts graphiques, Paris, France 2010 People on the Blocks, Living with art gallery, New York 2009 9,90€, Galerie d’arts graphiques, Paris, France 2009 My life , my work by me, Centre d’arts contemporains, Istres, France 2009 It was a pleasure, Living with art gallery, New York 2009 Mais pourquoi ?, Galerie d’arts graphiques, Paris, France 2008 Sometimes, I can reach the sky, Living with art gallery, New York 2008 Serge Bloch, galleria di illustrazioni stravaganti e ogetti strampalati at Palazzo dei Pio ,Carpi, Italy EDITORIAL magazines and newspapers : Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, NY Times ( and Magazine),Time magazine, New York Magazine, Boston Globe, GQ, Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg, Oxford University Press, Scholastic, National Geographic Magazine, Selling Power, Money magazine, The Ecologist (GB) and in France : Libération, Psychologies, La Vie, Enjeux-les Echos, Stratégies, le Nouvel, Observateur, Mariane BOOKS children books : Sam and his Dad» Bayard jeunesse, Léon’s school » Albin Michel, I am waiting», « The ennemi », »My little king», ed.Sarbacane, The big book of dummies, rebels and other genius», Gallimard etc… AWARDS 2010 Prix du meilleur album Taiwan 2010 USBBY Outstanding International Books Honor List 2009 Great Lakes Book Awards finalists The Underwear Salesman (Simon&Schuster) 2009 Prix Bernard Versele -Belgique- L'ennemi (Sarbacane) 2007 Bologna Ragazzi award non fiction L'encyclopédie des cancres : Des rebelles et autres genies (Gallimard) 2007 ARC AWARD Best of non-traditional annual report USA IBM 2006 Prix Presse des Jeunes, Mention Spéciale du Jury - Junior L'encyclopédie des cancres : Des rebelles et autres génies (Gallimard) 2005 Prix de La Nuit du Livre - Poche Toto en fait des kilos (Tourbillon) 2005 Prix Baobab de l’Album Moi, j'attends ...
