Cuadernos 2008-2018
Cuadernos 2008-2018 is an artist book by Henry Delétra Hanna published by Editions Ripopée. This book is a full color reproduction of drawings from Delétra Hanna’s notebook over the course of a decade. The close cropping of the drawings allow them to take on a new, expansive form, unconfined to the notebook. Animals, people, and landscape with an element of strangeness are depicted in inky, gestural brushstrokes. Henry Delétra Hanna is an artist who works across painting, drawing, and photography.

They organize events and serve as a printing center, offering book-making workshops in an old factory in Nyon, Switzerland. As a collective of artists, Editions Ripopée focuses on establishing connections and creating space for events and alternative artistic practice.
