Love that bunch aline kominsky crumb6/10/2023 ![]() ![]() She was likewise very still, very composed, but now drawing people to her, inviting them into her art. On Saturday mornings she would hold court and kibitz with her friends and greet visitors. On a visit last year I remember seeing her in the front room of the gallery she cofounded with her friend Julie Katan. This was not “the Bunch,” this was the Aline who was prepared, steeled for anything after decades of creating and sustaining a life entirely on her own terms. ![]() I marveled at her at a gallery opening in 2019. But when she was seated in public she was perfectly still. At dinner she’d gesticulate and exclaim and oh it was fun. There were comings and goings, and Aline herself was a force of energy. Can you see my cozy bedspread? See my lamp? The wall color is nice! Cute, huh? In her home in the south of France she always seemed perfectly in tune with the colors and tones of the walls and furniture around her.įor such a quiet place, things in that remote village always felt like they were in motion. I LOVED GETTING a FaceTime call from Aline, phone propped up so I could see her face and environs. ![]() The cover of Aline Kominsky-Crumb’s The Bunch's Power Pak Comics, 1979. ![]()
