Autorenporträt
Guionista de cómics británico y con fama de excéntrico, Moore es uno de los motores creativos más importantes de la historia de los cómics. Sus innovadores trabajos, V de Vendetta, Watchmen, La Liga de los Hombres Extraordinarios o From Hell, se han convertido en piezas imperecederas del paisaje cultural contemporáneo. El autor es ganador de más premios y reconocimientos de los que pueden contarse. Sus argumentos han inspirado el guion de varias películas de la factoría Hollywood. Las siguientes declaraciones resumen su opinión sobre su trabajo: "Creo que la magia es arte, y que el arte -ya sea música, escritura, escultura o se presente bajo cualquier otra forma- supone, literalmente, magia. El arte es, como la magia, la ciencia de manipular símbolos, palabras o imágenes para generar cambios en la conciencia... de hecho, realizar un hechizo consiste precisamente en jugar con las letras, en manipular las palabras, para así alterar la conciencia de la gente, y por eso creo que un artista o un escritor es lo más parecido, en la actualidad, a un chamán." British comic book writer and known eccentric, Alan Moore is one of the most influential creative forces in comic book history. His groundbreaking works--V for Vendetta, Watchmen, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and From Hell--have become timeless staples of contemporary pop culture. Moore has received countless awards and accolades, and his stories have inspired Hollywood screenplays for multiple films. The following statements summarize his views on his work: "I believe that magic is art, and that art--whether music, writing, sculpture, or any other form--is literally magic. Art, like magic, is the science of manipulating symbols, words, or images to create changes in consciousness... In fact, casting a spell is precisely about playing with letters, manipulating words, to alter people's awareness. That's why I believe an artist or a writer is the closest thing to a modern-day shaman."
