Book project "They call me zombie" with illustrations by international artists - information and my work in it

Svetlana Zombierella Nagaeva

Time's always a good reminder of who you're or what you did or are doing in present time and I know that real time's totally different from web time in order to promote or pitch a book idea. 
 I remember that more than one year ago I was finishing several exhibitions all over the world with help by the best international artists that I know of l (and they were more than one hundred with me comunicating with them in several languages) regarding a XXth century paper woman character that I've brought back to life inside a book collection to American publisher Fantagraphics where I used to work along other book collections as consultant editor for this book company that I've left because of ethical reasons and that are stated in this blogue in a previous post in it.
 I've organized and curated real simple collective exhibitions with more than a hundred international artists since 2016 and each one of them had a main theme, narrative and even its soundtrack such as "cats as pets", "music and musicians", "identity"," identity - end of narrative ", " Alberto Breccia and his works", " life and death" or even "Zombierella" and that can be seen in previous posts in this same blogue.
 I was working on several books at the same time during these two years and that were or are being published now in book publishing companies all over the world, being them the following: 
- A book collection that started on my mind regarding Argentine maestro Alberto Breccia completed bibliography and to whom I also organized a tribute exhibition that can be read/seen in this same blogue also.
- A book collection dedicated to Finnish Artist Matti Hagelberg 
- Complete works of Swedish Artist Max Andersson
- book "Savages" and a complete book collection by Croatian Artist Danijel Zezelj 
- Miracleman by British Artists Alan Moore, Garry Leach, American artists Rick Veitch and John Totleben
- Luna Park by American writer Kyle Baker and Croatian Artist Danijel Zezelj 
- V for Vendetta by Alan Moore and David Lloyd.
- A book collection dedicated to Argentine maestro José Munoz masterpieces stories. 
- A book collection dedicated to Italian maestro Guido Crepax
- A book collection dedicated to Argentine maestro Alberto Breccia  
- A book collection dedicated to Spanish maestros Ruben Pellejero and Enrique Sanchez Abuli.
- Writing comic book stories based on a XXIST century woman and that were located in 10 cities in different countries such as Porto - Portugal with art by Portuguese Artist Paulo Pinto, São Paulo - Brazil with art by Brazilian artist Brao, Milan - Italy with art by Spanish Artist Sandra Hernandez, Barcelona with art by Argentine Artist Mr Ed, Madrid - Spain with art by Spanish Artist Felipe Navarro, Santiago do Chile - Chile with art by Catalonyan Artist Toni Benages Gallard, Kyoto - Japan with art by Japanese Artist John Kurokawa, Le Mans - France with art by Spanish Artist Fidel Martinez Nadal, London - England with art by Spanish Artist Pedro Espinosa, Warsaw - Poland with art by Polish Artist Magdalena Minko and several extras featuring artworks by some legends in comic book industry such as American Artist George Pratt, British Artists Brian Bolland and Dave Mckean, Croatian Artist Danijel Zezelj, Spanish Artists Santiago Sequeiros and Ruben Pellejero, Argentine Artists Patricia Breccia, Quique Alcatena and Carlos Nine and Brazilian photographer Alex Korolkovas and L.A. models Katya Kulizhka from Ukraine,Vika Costa from Russia, Barbara Nogueira and Adriana Moura from Brazil and that wanted (and still want) to promote this book at Taschen bookstore in New York City - U.S.A with their physical appearance and even my own as creator of this project. 
- A book anthology that I was organising with help by the best Nordic Artists that I know of like Swedish Artists Max Andersson, Lars Erik Sjunesson, Knut Larsson, Nicolas Krizan, Clara Bessijelle Johansson, Danish Artist Henrik Kim Rehr, Finnish Artist Terhi Ekebom, and Polish Artist Bartosz Jekiel named "Lost in a nordic dream" 
- A book anthology that I was organizing with help by by Italian Artists such as Stefano Zattera, Rolando Cicatelli, Danilo Dast Strullato among many others.
- A book with interviews by me to some of the best international artists and musicians that I know of such as American artists Greg Ruth, Peter Bagge, Gary Reed, George Pratt, Melinda Gebbie, Argentine Artists Mr Ed, Quique Alcatena, Patricia and Cristina Breccia, Finnish Artist Terhi Ekebom, Swedish Artists Max Andersson and Lars Erik Sjunnesson, British Artist David Lloyd, Croatian Artist Danijel Zezelj, Portuguese Artists Paulo Pinto and Derradé, Spanish Artists Santiago Sequeiros, Ruben Pellejero, Enrique Sanchez Abuli and Fidel Martinez Nadal, Italian Artist Fabio Civitelli, German Artist Anke Feuchtenberger, Belgium Artist Dominique Goblet, French Artist Olivier Deprez, Caterina and Antonio Crepax, Czech musician Iva Bittova, Russian musicians Oleg Guitaracula, Svetlana Zombierella Nagaeva, Mascara Girl, Portuguese musicians Vitor Rua and Luciano Amaro Barbosa. 
 Too many books were passing at the time on my mind and my hands from all over the world in order for me to try to work on them as the writer/editor that I was and that I still am.
 I remember that I've made an interview to a Zombie lady/zombierella, more than one year ago and that can be read in this same blogue.
 She told me then, that she was being used by her band leader Oleg Guitaracula (to whom I also made an interview in this same blogue) being fired by the band that he created named Messer Chups and that later she came back to the band with a sudden case that reminded me a bit of stockholm syndrome or simple masochism.
 I remember that at the time that I was doing her the mentioned interview, I've told her about an exhibition with some of the best international artists that I know of (that was curated, organized and displayed in several places with artworks with inspiration based on her physical looks and character) and that I even told her about a book deal where I could write stories based on her with artworks/illustrations provided by several international artists that had published books all over the world in several languages (like I also have) and that I would need her help also, since we were talking about inspiration based on her own physical looks and character. 
 She told me that she could promote the artworks that she liked most in her personal Instagram and that was what she did in promotion terms. 
 Later, I wasn't understanding her mind, when she sent me harsh words regarding another project that I was creating at the time with Russian musician Mascara Girl from Leopard Bonapart fame and with help by international artists that also created illustrations and artworks based on her such as Italian Artist Stefano Zattera and Rolando Cicatelli, Japanese Artist John Kurokawa, Argentine Artist Pablo Burman, Mexican Artist Gaston Ortiz and American Artist Erik von Erik. (like I was her own property or slave and not actually her partner). 
I know that our project was being supported by several artists in several countries, that would be turned into a written book and later maybe into something else in visual media while I was thinking on it and its design, texts and graphic contents in real time. 
 The exhibition was a cool one with help by international artists who created artworks based on her and that are portrayed in pics as masters to turn into a written book with an excellent feedback by its live audience. 
 Later this year in Mayzombie lady/zombierella was harsh once again towards me because I was thinking on a project/narrative with an Argentine musician named Didi Wray and that can also be seen in this same blogue in previous posts with artworks based on her by Japanese Artist Garbage which burns, Italian Artist Rolando Cicatelli, Catalonyan Artist Toni Benages Gallard, American Artist Rikki Romero, Spanish Artist Daniel Esteve and Argentine Artist Pablo Burman. 
I didn't think about any of this and continued doing my work that's writing, exhibiting, curating and voicing a narrative with artworks illustrating it by the best international artists that I know of. 
 Below are some pictures with masters of some printed international artists artworks inspired on a zombie lady/zombierella and that are really astonishing.
 I'll try to finish this project maybe next year, because I know that finishing a book with artworks isn't a simple task and if it's a tricky one as this one is, will be even harder. 
 Many thanks to all international artists who supported this and other projects of mine either in the past or the upcoming future. 
 Special thanks without any harsh word to Russian musician Svetlana who inspired me and international artists in this project with her cool character, to Didi Wray, to Russian musicians Mascara Girl, Polina Draculina and to Daria Kovaleva better known as Dasha Intoxica and with whom I'm creating a multimedia love project/narrative/reflection with help by international artists and some already created artworks at rush time based on her looks such as Italian artist Rolando Cicatelli, Argentine Artist Pablo Burman, American Artist Rikki Romero and Canadian Artist Stan Wany while she's intoxicating myself as Dasha Intoxica.
