Lisa Lugrin and Clement Xavier at Parsons on September 8

A SLIDESHOW LECTURE BY LISA LUGRIN & CLÉMENT XAVIER ON “L’EPISODE”
Time:  September 8–7:30pm – 10:00pm
Location:  The Bark Room, 2 W. 13th, Lobby, New York, NY

LISA LUGRIN & CLÉMENT XAVIER along with a group of other recent graduates of the l’École européenne supérieure de l’image in Angoulême, France have formed a comic-strip association called “NA.” For the past two years, they have published “L’Episode,” an international comics-review printed on the rotary press of a local newspaper. The review features the work of young authors from around the world and is aimed at readers outside of the comics world. It is distributed in bookshops, cinemas, theaters and other alternative spaces.

The association conducts workshops for children through various social service organizations and published books of their work. Lisa and Clément have also produced a 42-page comic for a local French newspaper, and a screenplay and illustrations for a short cartoon produced by French TV Canal +.

Free and Open to the Public!
