Le meilleur des années 70 de Lauzier #[nn]
This collection brings together a selection of strips and illustrations from the 1970s by French cartoonist Georges Lauzier, known for his satirical and often risqué humor. Originally published by Dargaud in 2001, it compiles some of his most iconic work from that decade, showcasing his distinctive style and commentary on society.
In "L'orgasme," writer and artist Lauzier dives into the generational echo of rebellion, as Jacques’s bourgeois family embraces their punk phase with the nostalgic flair of past countercultural movements—zazous, Dadaists, Surrealists, beatniks, and hippies—reimagined through the lens of their own privileged past. The story unfolds with dry wit and visual flair, capturing a moment where liberation feels less like revolution and more like a well-dressed memory. The cover by Gérard Lauzier complements the tone with a striking, stylized portrait that hints at the era’s irony.
In "Les punks," Jacques’s bourgeois family embraces the punk scene with the same detached nostalgia they once had for zazous and beatniks—because, to them, rebellion is just another vintage aesthetic. The story skewers generational irony with a wink, as the kids’ DIY rebellion mirrors the very lifestyle their parents once flirted with, long before it was cool.
