We love bikes!!! And this is why bikes are taking over the city for the duration of the festival. They can be found everywhere, whether it’s the “Flugvelo” (flying bicycle) available for a test flight at the Swiss Museum of Transport, Velokurier’s “Puzzle-Velo”, or Nextbike’s bike rental network. Also keep your eyes open for artistic bike-objects all along the route to Fumetto; they’ll lead you directly to us.

Ein kleines Instrument um im Verkehr auf sich aufmerksam zu machen. Ich installierte ein Mikrofon in meinem Velokorb und fuhr in Zürich bei der grössten Velodemonstration der Schweiz mit. Kurz darauf kam das Velo durch den Bundesbeschluss VELO in die Bundesverfassung. Weitere Tonaufnahmen folgten an zwei Events der internationalen Velobewegung «Critical Mass». Ich organisierte auch zwei eigene Klingel-Events in Bern und Zürich. Für diese Eventsentstand mit Meret Gschwend (HKB, Visuelle Kommunikation) ein Flyer. Beim Event konnte ich eigene klangliche Ideen mit Velofahrer*innen umsetzen. Für die Klanginstallation wurde aus dem gesammelten Tonmaterial Sequenzen komponiert und eine Konstruktion mit Veloglocken gebaut. Zuhörer werden Teil der klinge(l)nden Velofahrenden.

And it is precisely this which monsters are also paid to impede, with Duck Herbert, Hero and Hasenfuss right in the middle of it all. Based on a comic by Joann Sfar and Lewis Trondheim.

National Comics is one of the main frames of analysis in comics… or is it too old-fashioned now that the ‘transnational’ is trending? We will discuss the upsides and limitations of the concept of national comics in the case of Canada, an officially multicultural and bilingual country in constant search of national identity: Does Canadian Comics matter? What is national comics? Most popular comics? Best comics? What about immigrants and emigrants? What are the roles of institutions?

Comics in India are being treated as cheap objects. People feel they have no inherent value, and are often discarded. Through a documentation of different raddiwalas (paper recyclers) who sort through the pile of books and magazines they get and rescue comics from there, Aarthi will talk about books that are representative of different points in the comics jouney of India: from the Pattachitra and Kaavad, to Indrajal Comics, to Amar Chitra Katha, to Tinkle Comics to Graphic Novels and finally zines. One of the books she will have with her is a rescued comic!

Sadly, comics have a longstanding tradition of sexism. Primarily focusing on North American / Canadian comics, we will discuss how sexism has affected the writing of the history of comics (erasing women) and the lack of historiographical discussion in comics. We will also see how contemporary creators (including men), publishers, and readers reflect the rise of feminism (including sexuality) in recent years. Works by: Julie Doucet; Carel Moiseiwitch; Fiona Smyth; Jillian Tamaki; Ginette Lapalme; Hue; Jessica Campbell; Aaron Manzyck; Eric Kostiuk Williams; Eli Howey; Victor Martins; Tings Chak

The creative challenge presented by comics does not begin or end at the drawing table. How does new work find a readership? What makes for a sustainable art practice? How do financial pressures and challenges drive aesthetic decisions, and vice versa? Join publisher and author Josh O'Neill, co-founder of the publishing collectives Locust Moon and Beehive Books, for a group discussion of small press economics, experimental methods of comics production and distribution, and the communities that create – and are created by – comic books.

The workshop on gender and comics is basically to take people through different images, that Aarthi has collected for here research project and at each image, stop to have a discussion, as well as a visual/written reaction. We could engage in detail with each piece of representation, and have a conversation about it. Then we would either note down our observations on context, character, creator to understand why that image exists in that way, or re-imagine/ re-write that image.

Comics’ entry to the fine art world was the source of the appropriation art (Lichtenstein). But now many comic artists deploy the method of appropriation includes collage. There are exciting similarities of heterogeneity and methodology that collage and comics share, especially with the development of photo editing software. We will discuss collage works of comic artists; comics employing collage; comics influenced by collage; collage as comics; and comics as collage. * Works by: Julie Doucet; Marc Bell; Michael Comeau; Kendra Yee; Hue; Patrick Kyle; Tings Chak; Ginette Lapalme

Rrring! Zziing! DingDong! Bing! Veloglocke.
Ein kleines Instrument um im Verkehr auf sich aufmerksam zu machen. Ich installierte ein Mikrofon in meinem Velokorb und fuhr in Zürich bei der grössten Velodemonstration der Schweiz mit. Kurz darauf kam das Velo durch den Bundesbeschluss VELO in die Bundesverfassung. Weitere Tonaufnahmen folgten an zwei Events der internationalen Velobewegung «Critical Mass». Ich organisierte auch zwei eigene Klingel-Events in Bern und Zürich. Für diese Eventsentstand mit Meret Gschwend (HKB, Visuelle Kommunikation) ein Flyer. Beim Event konnte ich eigene klangliche Ideen mit Velofahrer*innen umsetzen. Für die Klanginstallation wurde aus dem gesammelten Tonmaterial Sequenzen komponiert und eine Konstruktion mit Veloglocken gebaut. Zuhörer werden Teil der klinge(l)nden Velofahrenden.

Symposium | Part 1
The digitalisation and making of books available online has an impact both on who reads them and how they are read. What is the significance of transplanting a private collection into an online archive? This raises questions about different forms of digital archiving, accessibility and copyright, and both the possibilities and the perils of web-based archives. In The Futures of Comics (s.S. XY) four experts and enthusiasts of the Ninth Art have been invited to bring samples from their own private libraries to Lucerne to digitalise over the course of the festival.

Part 2
For each comic star there are hundreds who don’t make it into the spotlight, and it’s not always a question of talent: marketing and presentation also play a huge role in the process. Swiss comic artists talk about their strategies and how they deal with the changing prospects and demands of a (post) digital age. Some use traditional distribution, others take on their own online-marketing; artists work solo or as a collective, engaging with their public in informal environments, and acquiring thousands of followers on social media. Following the symposium the Réseau BD Suisse invites guests to a reception for further discussion.

The Indian artist Avinash Karn is a young master of the traditional folk art of Madhubani. This art form, originally to be found on the walls of houses, can also be found today in other visual media and formats. Karn gives workshops out of his studio in Varanasi as well as directly in villages. He has been awarded many prizes for his teaching, the goal of which is to use narrative to strengthen self-awareness in rural populations. Now you too have the opportunity to learn the techniques and traditions of Madhubani, which you may then use to tell stories of your own locales.

An experimental workshop on comics distribution. The workshop arises from the need to think radically the distribution of any cultural material and in particular of comics from a negative perspective. Through different exercises we will create a protocol for massive elimination of all comics worldwide. Later we will identify spaces of resistance where comics could survive under extreme adverse conditions.

A new generation of artists are surfacing who perceive the comics medium as a spatial experience, with the third dimension comprising a fundamental element of the narrative, both in choice of material and presentation of the work. The comic artists of the Rebus exhibition discuss their visions of sequential narration in the space between publication and multimedia installation.

India’s comic scene is on the rise. Collectives from New Delhi to Mumbai to Calcutta are appearing at a network of festivals seemingly from out of thin air. Art colleges in Ahmedabad and Bangalore are establishing a place for sequential narration in their curricula. The act of drawing, along with alternative DIY practises and new online publication possibilities are all part of the revolt against social discrimination and the patriarchy. In this panel some of the prominent members of India’s comic scene give us a peek into this vibrant phenomenon.
