Komikazen 2009

Obavijest koju možete naći u skraćenoj verziji ispod, a u punom tekstu ovdje nam je danas poslala naša prijateljica Elettra Stamboulis iz organizacijskog tima Mirada Association. Neki posjetioci bloga će se možda sjetiti da je Elettra sa svojom ekipom jedne godine ugostila našu Ines na Komikazen Festivalu, druge godine smo mi ugostili njih u Sarajevu, a ove godine imaju sjajnu listu gostiju, predvođenu izvrsnim Daveom McKeanom i fantastičnim Carlosom Trillom, te sve više razmišljam da napokon lično odem u Ravennu. Kome se još ide? Samo kada ne bih trebao završiti seminarski i barem jedan ispit do kraja oktobra…

Organised by the Mirada Association

Teatreo Rasi (Via di Roma, 39)

Friday 9 and Saturday 10 October 2009 Ravenna will host the fifth edition of Komikazen – the International Reality Comic Festival, organised by the Mirada Cultural Association.

The Festival is produced in the ambit of the initiatives of the GAER Emilia Romagna (regional networks of the GAI – Giovani Artisti Italiani (Young Italian Artists)) and ‘Italia Creativa’.

The tendency to autobiographical, memorialist, historical and journalistic reporting of reality has always been present in many of the great masters of arte sequential art. It is precisely this aspect of the comic that the Komikazen Festival is occupied with. In this edition in particular it is mainly stories that originate with individual tension, research and experimentation that are presented.

Six of the authors, guests of the fifth edition of Komikazen, will be the protagonists of workshops and meetings together with authoritative representatives of the national cultural panorama and present in Ravenna with the original artworks or some of their most important works which will be exhibited for one month (until 8 November 2009) in various locations in the city.
