Zine Fest
Grafixx is the festival to be at De Studio in Antwerp. Artists from all over Europe share their latest creations and experiences during a dazzling programme of exhibitions, lectures, workshops, screenings, performances and the one and only Antwerp zine fest.
Grafixx is more than a festival around graphic arts. Our half-yearly in-depth evening Grafixx EXTD. brings together various speakers from the field around certain aspects of illustration, comics, visual arts, literature and design.
For Grafixx House Call, artist-teacher-curator Ephameron travels the world to visit some of her favourite creative friends. During her 3-month residency in Bangkok, she talked with Tuna Dunn, an up-and-coming artist known for her minimalist linework, bathing in a muted colour palette.
Chiara Lammens reports from the Ardennes, where nothing is what it seems. Through subtle details in her illustrations, she shows the collective human urge to be one with nature, to find solitude, peace and quiet. She keeps wandering, discovering new experiences around every bend.
In a live book club, Joana Estrela, Brecht Vandenbroucke & Ephameron together with Obi Mundorff open their bookshelves, and with them a piece of their creative soul. They will talk about their own recent publications, reveal their fondest sources of inspiration, and scrutinise favourite publications.
