Description

Giovan Battista Carpi, Topolino contro Joe Pantera. China su cartoncino, cm 35x23.

Giovan Battista Carpi was born in Genova on the 16th of November 1927.
He attends the Accademia of Belle Arti first and painter Giacomo Picollo’s studio after debutting in the comic art world in 1945 on weekly “Faville”. He then collaborates with “Lo Scolaro”, “Gazzetta dei Piccoli” and other magazines.
He works for a while at the studio of animated films of Pagot brothers and in 1953 he becomes part of the staff that realizes comic stories with characters from Disney. He’s particularly talented for costume stories he fonds his name with the same parodies, from "Paperino Principe di Dunimarca" to an important reduction of “I Miserabili” of Victor Hugo.
He illustrates many “Manuali Delle Giovani Marmotte"; in 1969 he creates graphically the character of “Paperinik”.
Even though he spends the majority of his time working on Disney characters he sometimes collaborates with other editors: for “Bianconi” he creates “Nonna Abelarda” (later worked on mostly by Nicola Del Principe), he realizes various stories of “Fix und Foxi” for Germany and gives birth to “Gargantua” for “Smack” and “Dodo” for “Airone Junior” (from 1989).
He’s also the founder and director of the “Accademia Disney”, school of authors set up into Disney Italia.
He dies in Genova on the 8th of March 1999.
