Riccardo Corbò asked me a poster illustration for an massive Batman related art exhibition in Città Di Castello, Italy. The event is patrocinated by DC Comics, of course.
I was requested to remix the famous castle cover by Bob Kane (luckily enough, my favourite Batman drawing of all time), in the heritage of Neal Adams' twist of it. Città Di Castello is literally a castle shaped small town in central Italy so we had a perfect chance to depict it into the poster.
Here is a partial list of the artists involved:
Simone Bianchi, Claudio Castellini, Gabriele Dell'Otto, Giuseppe Camuncoli e Matteo Casali, Alberto Ponticelli, Emanuel Simeoni, Riccardo Burchielli, Emanuela Lupacchino, David Messina, Tanino Liberatore, Lee Bermejo, Eleonora Carlini, Marco Santucci, Hugo Pratt, Bob Kane, Frank Miller, Francesca Protopapa, Rita Petruccioli, Giovanni P. Timpano, Michele Rech, Ale Giorgini, Leo Ortolani, Francesco D'Erminio Ratigher, Flavio Solo, Sio, Carmine Di Giandomenico .
The event was made possible thanks to with Warner Bros Italia and Rw Lion.
Last but not least!
