The seemingly endless amount of art that was produced is staggering. The meticulous detail, originality, and genius that emodies all of that stuff is beyond impressive. The amount of time and hardwork that went into it all is clearly evident.
I saw that show at the Society of Illustrators, (among a number of other shows of Crumb's work in NYC over the years before and after this show). This was the most comprehensive, the one intended to be a retrospective rather than just a collection of current or available works. Of course, it was wonderful to be see his work in the original. I saw an exhibition of his illustrations for the Book of Genesis. Incredible to see all the pages displayed together.
When history must distill what defines underground comix into one creative genius that is the alpha and the omega of that genre…there can be no argument, dispute or question…that name is CRUMB!
She's pushy enough to be heard just fine without turning . It's about Crumb and not her. Even though he was henpecked into putting her terrible and amateurish cartoons into books alongside his. These guys who were dominated by their Mother, end up with these Women like Yoko Ono, who just step in and take over. Mickey Rooney's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame has his wife's name on it right next to his . This is a mental condition whereby men gravitate to these pushy "Strong Women" who end up completely dominating their lives
@@ValkonnenYeah, she wouldn't even have gotten much attention for her comics (which are typical "New York Jewish Family" melodrama) if she hadn't been married to Crumb.
Have always loved him and his wife. At one time in my life, I was called "Big Baby". I never got it until well until my later years. Such an aware, sexy man.
I always find it curious that these highly ambitious, feminist, ever so slightly talented women will find a man like R. Crumb (or John Lennon or Ozzy) and then, all of a sudden, it's "we" this and "we" that. She is a third rate artist at best and would never have been heard of if not for her fortunate marriage. But now it's a collaboration? Now they're on the same level? Crumb was already well established in the underground comics world-an icon even then really-before he ever met Aline. There is no comparison between their work. These delusional chicks really get on my nerves, may Aline rest in peace.
Yeah. surely. Crumb, as everyone knows, is the great emperor of underground comics. Aline is. . . Hmm, there's nothing I can say. As you say, I can definitely say that you are an expressive person of that level. This interview might have been better with Crum alone. She keeps talking, interrupting Krum. Crumb's thought is full of revelations and hints of art that we glimpse. However, I'm not that interested in her message, probably because I don't think she's a great expressor. Oh, and the new collaboration is such a different level of art between the two, When I first read it, I thought, ``This is too dissonant!'' Anyway, in this interview, she acts like she's a greater artist than Crumb. Even though it is a collaboration work with Crumb, he insists on it as if it is all his own ability. Looks too weird. Crumb also looks a little grumpy. She seemed more like an egoist than a feminist...
Listen to "My characters have a life of their own." | Cartoonist Robert Crumb | Louisiana Channel, He describes how important Aylene was. She was his muse and female icon. She was like one of his characters in his art and kept him grounded in practical matters.
@@TheViolettowne That may be true, but when it comes to the actual work produced, she does not have the right to include herself in the "we" category. A muse is merely an inspiration. Her work is exponentially inferior to Crumb's and would have gone completely unnoticed by the world were it not for her association with him. While I have no reason to doubt that she was a good wife to Crumb, she nevertheless shamelessly rode his coattails when it came to the professional aspect of their lives.
@@TheViolettowneJust because she was important to Crumb (who openly admitted that he needed a domineering woman) doesn't mean that her work is important, or should be regarded on his level.
One of the 10 greatest living artists.

his voice is timeless to me, the way he talks if i close my eyes he sounds like a 20 yr old
Rest in peace Aline..she passed away at age 74 in Nov of '22..pancreatic cancer...
Good riddance!
Long live robert crumb. Give him 120 years atleast!!
Yes sir🎉🎉🎉

One of my favorite artists… his work reminds me of the stuff GILBERT GOTTFRIED drew before his passing
You mean the other way around. Crumb was doing this in the 60's and guys like Gilbert and I would scour NYC comic shops to get these.
I guess it was too much work to move the camera onto Aline when she's talking?

I love you sir❤❤❤❤❤
It sounds like they let him choose the music for the exhibition - cool!
I was so saddened to hear Aline passed.
I was thrilled!
Have always loved him and his wife. At one time in my life, I was called "Big Baby". I never got it until well until my later years. Such an aware, sexy man.
Unmic'ed interviewer. Holding the camera on Robert while Aline talks. 5/7 interview. Perfect score. No notes.
I love these fools.

I want to hear Crumb talk, not his wife or the interviewer.
My favorite is the one where she goes home with some loser and passes out and wakes up with her but hurting😂😂😂.
