When did I first see the art of Alfonso Azpiri? Most likely it was on late-night TV while I was watching Night Flight, my gateway for everything underground during the late 70s/early 80s. This was the place where you could see Heavy Metal magazine come to life. Azpiri’s work has always had an effect on me because of the power that her work possesses. Alfonso art is a drug unto itself, and if you look at it too long you just might travel to places full of fantastic female warriors with magical powers. I must say I love the way that he depicts women in her art because he’s able to balance sex appeal with strength. Today we would like to celebrate the never-ending fantasy that is Azpiri’s art.
