Invisible lines: drawing bodies

with Rikke Villadsen, Bim Eriksson, Lode Herregods, Mia Oberländer, Barbora Satranská

chair Ilaria Tontardini

To draw a body is never a neutral act: from the physicality of drawing to his symbolic meaning, telling in comics always means talking about the body, modeling it, transforming it, playing with its visible and invisible dimension. The boys and girls of Invisible Lines discuss it with the comic artist Rikke Villadsen, who has made of the representation of the body the figure of her art.

Entry: libero fino a esaurimento posti

The event is part of Invisible Lines, co-financed by the Creative Europe program of the European Union.
In partnership with Flanders Literature, Czech Literary Centre, Goethe-Institut Roma.

DAS - Dispositivo Arti Sperimentali

Meet the author: Gabriella Giandelli

chair Ilaria Tontardini

with Gabriella Giandelli

Gabriella Giandelli’s artwork has enlightened the Italian comics scene; the artist speaks about her work, which is at the same time in the middle and on the margins of the contemporary scene due to the finesse of research and the poetics focused on the dimension of absence, loneliness and time that pass by.
