worldwide. Feggo by Marissa Acocella Marchetto "Felipe's work is
not only good humored but good hearted and guaranteed to lift your
spirits " -Gahan Wilson "Felipe's cartoon art is absolutely unique
and among the most creative I have seen anywhwere. The humor in his
drawings is most often conveyed without falling back on the crutch
of words or captions. I envy him that ability, because, as a
cartoonist myself, I know that he has chosen the most difficult
path in this art form and has triumphed."-Jack Ziegler "Ordinarily
I don't use F-words, but Feggo is a Fabulously Funny Fellow."-Sam
Gross "It is a rare cartoonist who appeals to such diverse
readerships as the Reader's Digest, Barron's, The New Yorker and
Nickelodeon, to name just a few of the magazines where the widely
published Felipe Galindo's cartoons can be found. As cartoon editor
of The New Yorker I especially enjoy Felipe's carefully constructed
sight gags, whose wordless humor unites all demographics in
laughter." -Bob Mankoff
Felipe Galindo (Feggo) is an award-winning Mexican artist who has
lived and worked in New York City since the early 80s. He
specializes in creating humorous art in a variety of media,
including cartoons, illustration, animation, fine art, and public
art. His work has been exhibited and published worldwide. "Feggo's
work stands in the rich tradition of Mexico's socially engaged art,
an art that strives, using humor and irony, to make sense out of
our beautiful and ever more baffling world." -From the Introduction
by Peter Canby"What a wicked sense of humor Galindo has. Mexican
artifacts enact absurd acts of revenge on Big Apple institutions, a
bit like anti-imperialist New Yorker cartoons." -The Washington
Post "Galindo's appealing images superimpose Mexican icons over the
New York cityscape, in a playful nod to the multiculturalism that
helps make the city great." -Time Out New York
