The curator guided tour of the exhibition 'Christophe Blain. Paradis perdus', led by curator Anette Gehrig, offer a journey through the genres of comics. On the final day of the exhibition, the artist himself will join us once again. The award-winning illustrator and comics book author Christophe Blain, with his expressive style and biting humour, depicts heroes and heroines searching for themselves in adventures ranging from Westerns to pirate stories. He addresses current events in the political satire ‘Quai d'Orsay’, and his latest nonfiction comic, ‘Le Monde sans fin’ (World Without End), deals with climate change and the energy policy challenges of the coming years.
