“The Foundations of Modern Art”

In "The Foundations of Modern Art," Theo’s life fractures in a single afternoon—first losing his fiancée, then witnessing a suicide before retreating into the quiet dread of his apartment. Peering into his neighbor’s room, he stumbles upon something unsettling, the tension building in two raw, furious double-page spreads. A striking collaboration by Pascal Doury, Art Spiegelman, and Françoise Mouly, with Ever Meulen’s intense cover art, this 1983 Raw #5 delivers a haunting, visually charged moment in the series’ early run.
