Mathieu Laville

Mathieu Laville studied fine arts in Lyon and Arts Déco in Strasbourg in the early eighties. He made illustrations in Vanity, Vogue and the Italian Marie-Claire. His work was influenced by Ever Meulen, Joost Swarte and R. Crumb. He also made several collages and pop-ups. Unfortunately, Laville died unexpectedly in a car accident at age 28, before he had his chance to truly become one of the "kings of illustration".
