Brecht Evens (1986) is currently one of the most notorious representatives of the contemporary European comics scene, surprising readers and reaping critical praise with each new work. His comic pages overflow with colours and don’t give two hoots about frames and speech bubbles, and the stories cut sharply into modern everyday life. The comic book The Wrong Place (2009) resulted in his breakthrough on the international level, and he also received the Prix de L’Audace for authorial audaciousness at the renowned comics festival in Angoulême, France. It was also there that he received a special jury prize for his latest graphic novel The City of Belgium in 2019. Stripolis will publish a Slovenian translation of the comic book The Making Of, a kind of parody of the art world, in which Evens paints with lush watercolours and characteristic wit the clumsy, amateurish slip-ups of the participants of a small art festival in the Flemish countryside.

The Equrna Gallery will host the world premiere of the exhibition of selected lithographs by Evens, and the opening of the exhibition will be accompanied by a conversation with the author. Evens will be signing his books at the Saturday fair at Kino Šiška, and visitors will receive insights into his work process at his masterclass.

For the third year in a row, the Equrna Gallery will host an exhibition by a guest of the Tinta Festival – this time, the famous Belgian comics artist Brecht Evens, who lives and works in Paris. The author’s latest artistic production – a series of 32 prints in the lithography technique – will be on view for the first time. The exhibition provides insight into a lesser-known chapter of the artist’s creative oeuvre and his exploration of the expressive possibilities of classic graphic techniques, and the displayed lithographic prints bear the author’s distinct and recognizable mark.

The opening of the exhibition will be accompanied by a conversation with the author, led by comics artist Izar Lunaček. The Slovenian translation of Evens’s comic book The Making Of will also be presented for the first time.

The lobby of the gallery will be taken over by local comics artists – Matej de Cecco, Ivan Mitrevski, Karolina Umetnina, Lea Vučko, Janez Grm, David Krančan and Izar Lunaček – with a unique homage to the author and his comics opus, and we will toast with the festival beer Pečeni Panter (Baked Panther), which is also inspired by one of Evens’s comics.
