Bruno Di Sano. Original felt-tip artwork, exclusively in aid of the "Une tente une vie" operation, on cardboard. Signed. Wood frame with Plexiglas glass included: 155 x 125 cm Born on October 14, 1951 in Saint-Nicolas. Before becoming a professional draughtsman, Bruno Di Sano was, by necessity, a car mechanic. In 1984, after working on a few albums published by Michel Deligne, he joined Éditions du Lombard, where he drew a number of series for the "Tintin" magazine: "Arnold le Rêveur" with J. Thaulez, "Le jeune Renaudin" with J. Dufaux and Mythic, and "Platon, Torloche et Coquinette" (based on Renaud) with Didgé. For a dozen years, he produced 9 "naughty" albums and took part in 23 equally "naughty" collective collections for Joker Éditions. For the same publisher, he produced with F.Walthéry and Mythic, 3 volumes of "Johanna, une Femme dans la Peau", then designed the decor for the adventures of the charming "Natacha". For Éditions Lefranc, he also illustrated two "Sherlock Holmes" investigations adapted for comics by A.P. Duchâteau. For Vents d'Ouest, he signed two albums for the "Guides en BD" collection. In 2007, at the request of Éditions Jungle Kids, he transposed into comics the adventures of Fred and Jamy, the dynamic and likeable hosts of the famous TV show "C'est pas sorcier", broadcast by France 3, RTBF and TV5. 2009 marks his 25th year in the business, and also marks the official return to Le Lombard of "Rubine", a series of detective adventures created by Mythic in collaboration with F. Walthéry. In 2014, once again under François Walthéry's supervision, he draws a new diptych, this time closer to Natacha, entitled L'Aviatrice. In 2019, he pays tribute to Luguy's Percevan. In April 2021, Rubine makes his comeback in Serial lover, published by Editions du Tiroir. The same year, he falls victim to the great floods of Wallonia by the Vesdre river and loses many of his originals, he also participates in a collective Lovely Wheels with C.M. Éditions. The ORIG-AMI is a cardboard shelter measuring 117 x 235 x 150 cm. It is insulating, structurally protective, folds like an accordion, can be carried like a backpack and is recyclable. The homeless shelter was designed on the principle of origami, a Japanese paper-folding technique.
