Giovan Battista Carpi
(16/11/1927 - 8/3/1999, Italy)
Giovan Battista Carpi studied at the Academy of Fine Arts. Afterwards, he took courses by the painter Giovanni Piccolo. In 1945, Carpi made his debut in the comics field, with the family strip 'La Famiglia Serafini' in the weekly Faville magazine. From 1946, he cooperated on the educational magazine Lo Scolaro, and drew 'Sparagrosso, Cacciatore in Africa' for Gazzetta dei Piccoli. He settled in Milan and worked in the animation studios of the Pagot brothers for a while. He established himself as an all-round author with the comic 'Celestino al Centro della Terra', which he wrote and drew for Giornalino di Carroccio. In addition, he illustrated for several publishing houses, such as Corticelli, Tipys, Messaggerie Musicali and De Agostini.
In 1953, Carpi joined the publishing house Mondadori and became a mainstay on the Disney staff. He began a steady collaboration with inker Giulio Chierchini, and together they produced numerous 'Paperino' ('Donald Duck') stories for Topolino. He became famous for the parodies he fitted in his 'Paperino' comics, like a persiflage on Victor Hugo's 'Les Miserables'. At first strongly inspired by the American artists, Carpi soon seveloped a personal style, that has been an inspiration to many other artists. Giovan Carpi was in charge of the Italian Disney University, created to train the Italian Disney artists.
While working for Disney, he continued to draw for other publishers. He was present at the publishing house Bianconi with 'Soldino' and 'Nonna Abelarda'. He drew 'Bertoldo' for publisher Gino Sansoni in 1963, as well as several stories with 'Fix und Foxi' for the German Kauka Verlag between 1965 and 1966. Also for Mondadori, he illustrated stories with 'Pixi e Dixi' and 'Yoghi' in Braccobaldo (late 1960s). One of his final creations was 'Gargantua', which appeared in Smack magazine from 1979.

Nasce a Genova (Italia) il 16 novembre 1927. Frequenta l'Accademia di belle arti e lo studio del pittore Giacomo Picollo prima di debuttare nel mondo dei fumetti, nel 1945, sul settimanale Faville. In seguito collabora con Lo Scolaro, la Gazzetta dei piccoli e altre riviste. Lavora per qualche tempo come intercalatore nello studio di disegni animati dei fratelli Pagot e nel 1953 entra a far parte dello staff che realizza storie a fumetti con i personaggi disneyani. Particolarmente versato per le storie in costume, lega il proprio nome ad alcune famose parodie, da "Paperino principe di Dunimarca" a una pregevole riduzione de "I miserabili" di Victor Hugo, e illustra numerosi "Manuali delle Giovani Marmotte"; nel 1969 crea graficamente il personaggio di Paperinik.
Nonostante dedichi la maggior parte del proprio tempo alla produzione disneyana, collabora saltuariamente con altri editori: per Bianconi crea Nonna Abelarda (poi continuata e caratterizzata soprattutto da Nicola Del Principe), realizza numerose storie di Fix und Foxi per la Germania e dà vita tra l'altro a Gargantua per Smack e a Dodo per Airone Junior (dal 1989). E' inoltre fondatore e direttore dell'Accademia Disney, la scuola di autori allestita in seno alla Disney Italia.
Muore a Genova l'8 marzo 1999.
