Ralph Steadman è un fumettista e illustratore britannico rinomato per il suo incisivo commento sociale e politico. Il suo lavoro, caratterizzato da linee selvagge ed espressive e da un umorismo spesso inquietante, approfondisce gli aspetti assurdi e più oscuri della natura umana. Steadman eccelle nel creare immagini indimenticabili che sono tanto provocatorie quanto spiritose. Il suo audace stile visivo e la sua prospettiva intransigente sul mondo lo rendono una figura singolare nel campo dell'illustrazione.

Their work together also encompasses significant cultural events, including the Watergate scandal.
The Boids are back in town ... The follow-up to the award-winning EXTINCT BOIDS, this book features more of the incredible art of cartoonist Ralph Steadman. This time the focus is not on the birds that are gone, but the ones that there's still time to save. These are the 192 Critically Endangered birds on the IUCN Red List, species such as the Giant Ibis, the Kakapo, the Sumatran Ground-cuckoo and the iconic Spoon-billed Sandpiper – these, along with a number of classic Steadman creations such as the Unsociable Lapwing, are the NEARLY-EXTINCT BOIDS. Woids are again by author, conservationist and film-maker Ceri Levy. Together, Ceri and Ralph are THE GONZOVATIONISTS.
'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' first appeared in Rolling Stone in 1971. Highly acclaimed, it is a fictionalised account of the author's drug-induced rampage in Las Vegas whilst on a long weekend trip with his attorney.
