Inquerito policial: familia Tobías | Ricardo Lisias

 

The starting point of the book Inquerito Policial: Familia Tobias (Police Inquire: Tobias Family) is the file of a real investigation developed by the author, Ricardo Lisias. He discovered that the denouncers were: João Varella, Cecilia Arbolave and Thiago Blumenthal, partners of the editorial Lote 42, with the mere intention of helping him in a creative crisis and in this way make possible the publication of a book. Lisias, then, asks for the opening of an investigation of the Federal Police against the editorial. The new investigation brings about declarations of one of the partners, of the author himself, tests, genealogical tree of the family-that goes back to the XIX century, and the corresponding stories of the family fourth generation: of the film maker João Tobias (tragically killed in Ecuador) of the artist Fernando Tobias and of the stylist Mariana Tobias.

The object book reminds us the old files of criminal records, joins texts, images, and documents. The graphic project, developed by the Casa Rex Brazilian design agency of Gustavo Piqueiro recreates the aesthetics and format of a police investigation: the book presents printed tests of different sizes and fixed to the file with staples.
