Née le 4 mai 1988, Marion Fayolle grandit en Ardèche et intègre l'école des Arts Décoratifs de Strasbourg en 2006 et obtient son diplôme en juin 2011.
C'est au sein de l'atelier d'illustration qu'elle rencontre Matthias Malingrey et Simon Roussin avec lesquels elle fonde en 2009 la revue Nyctalope. Son premier livre, L'homme en pièces, vient de paraître aux éditions Michel Lagarde. Il s'agit d'un recueil d'histoires sans paroles, d'un ensemble de petits numéros aux ambiances poétiques et décalées dans lesquels les parents arrosent leurs enfants comme des plantes et les femmes allument les hommes comme des bougies.
Elle travaille également pour l'édition jeunesse et la presse : revue XXI, Paris mômes...

Я втомився читати, тож нехай під кінець року тут буде іронічна книжка з еротичними картинками. Але картинки я переглянув усі, чесно! І ті два речення французькою таки прочитав.

I found this book when I went to see Joan Cornellà art show in Paris at Arts Factory Gallery.

I really enjoy this kind of book - an exploration of visual language, visual humor, direct illustration. No text, no background. Minimal, witty illustrations delivered in a deadpan way.

Not everyone can succeed at this kind of humor. I've seen visual books that set out to do something similar and just miss the mark as they fall back on repeating trite stereotypes.

This book hits the nail on the head. It entertains the reader, it captures your attention, and it raises some questions about our collective unconscious and why we choose these metaphors to describe sexual experience.

I literally felt the need to keep this book open and on display in my room for a year. Too fun and brilliant to keep it a secret!!

Joya visual, pequeño obra de arte que te deja sin palabras. Solo tienes que sumergirte y dejarte llevar por las ilustraciones. Si eres muy puritano no es para ti, pero encierra un mensaje muy claro hace la sexualización de ciertas posturas de la vida. 100% recomendable.

Obra diminuta (en formato sobre todo) pero de gran calado, demuestra una visión chispeante.

Un hallazgo lleno de ocurrencias y editado por Nórdica en España.

105×147+[|₉₀flaps|] ¦ A.I. 06/2014 ¦ no D.L. ¦ 9,90€ = ²ed.(noté)
'²ed. set in brown type + printed on Munken Print Cream paper'*


This is pure genital goofiness that I love seeing from the female artist's point·of·view!

*I don't know if that printing information was the same as the eo a month earlier, that I assume this shares the same D.L. with (14 May 2014), so I just listed for possible interest in English (so it fit on one line). While noting publisher stuff I'll also mention that Éditions Magnani has the most singular spine text that I've seen- it's like you see in the bottom corner of the cover putting no more than three letters going horizontally per line.

Les Coquins est un recueil érotique poétique et plein d’humour signé Marion Fayolle. Par des dessins surréalistes et métaphoriques, elle détourne les corps et les situations pour révéler les jeux de désir, de séduction et de pouvoir entre hommes et femmes. Ici, l’imagination est reine : les corps deviennent objets, paysages ou animaux, toujours avec une touche de tendresse et d’ironie.

Ce qui frappe, c’est la justesse du regard : jamais vulgaire, jamais gratuit, l’érotisme passe par le décalage visuel et l’invention graphique. Chaque page surprend, amuse, et invite à réfléchir sur la manière dont on représente le désir et la relation à l’autre.

Utterly pointless yet absolutely hilarious. A bunch of independent images, superficially about the sexual act, but absolutely not erotic. Marion Fayolle plays on common expressions and cultural imagery, and creates the most absurd scenes

this is not really a book, but more a visual art masterpiece! superfunny, all illustrations definitely ridiculize males/females but will also for sure make you laugh.

Uma leitura gráfica com um toque marcadamente surreal, metafórico, extravagante, capaz de surpreender qualquer leitor e o transportar para o mundo onírico e fantasioso da sexualidade humana.

Já conhecia este livrinho e sempre o adorei. Finalmente tenho-o e li todo.
Todas as ilustrações são super divertidas e originais, ainda que haja algumas bem parvas.
Mas vale a pena!

ce petit livre c'est l'un de mes trésors les plus précieux et un pur joyau.
une très brève collection de dessins explorant les profondeurs de la sexualité et de l'amour d'une manière inhabituelle, intelligente et ironique.

Totally hilarious picture book for adults. Some of the pictures are even insightful, the others ’only’ funny.
