Abril Lamarque dating history

Details

Eduardo Abril Lamarque was a Cuban and American caricaturist, cartoonist, artist, designer, and magazine publisher. He also engaged himself as a stage magician and as a music conductor. Lamarque was an innovator in the arts of typography, magazine layout and design, and caricature creation. He was the first person in the world to create, draw, and distribute a comic strip entirely in the Spanish language. Prior to this, Spanish language comic strips had only been translations of comics from other languages. In the 1920s, Lamarque was considered one of the top ten greatest cartoonists living in the United States. Lamarque also invented entirely new forms of art, such as his infamous radiocatures, genre forms of cartoons, and a new style of caricature he called the composacature. He is considered to be a follower of the Bauhaus movement.
