Solo Komik show, Java

It's Official: APE Sucked.

 
I have NOTHING from APE.  The only good thing that happened was that I might be able to send a script to a manga publisher .
 
I blew off  the last day of APE and went to Japan Town.  That was the most fun I had all weekend.  Well...hanging out wasn't too bad.  I saw my friend Jason.  And I bought a plush toy.  Are you dying of boredom yet?

How to put the cherry on the cake

In May:
"Sept mois -et une semaine- à la sauce khmère" ("Seven month -and one
week- in the Khmer way of life") by Sylvain-Moizie premieres, as well as the new Simon Hureau book based on his travels in Cambodia.

All at ILLIKO, focused on what Europeans call the '9th Art'.

(Robot Translation:) The cities which organize festivals of comics or salons of comic books count today in a number but finally very little of them take the party taken to make these demonstrations, true moments of meetings and complicities between the authors and the public.Nous let us attach a great importance to the contact and the exchange to support the relations with draughtsmen and illustrators creative and available. With through our support for these artists, we also wish to give the word to the creation and not to the industry of the 9th art.

This 5e edition will be once more the occasion to gather a community d¹artists having for common point the talented and complementary fact of being in their work. The stress will in addition be laid on the presentation of original works and the organization of workshops of creation. Singular demonstration in the regional cultural landscape, illiko will propose, during a whole week, of many exposures and meetings of draughtsmen authors and astonishing illustrators; school workshops with Bruno Heitz with the media library youth; the famous contest of illustration having this year for topic "How to put cherry on the cake?" and finally, a weekend of strong times during which the public will be able to make some shopping (books of course!!!), to attend the varnishing of the exposures, to take part in meetings dedications with the authors and to enjoy the concert of Parrondo.

In short, a 5e eclectic edition, rich in surprised and especially far from the folderols. To consume without moderation!

"Les villes qui organisent des festivals de BD ou des salons du livre se comptent aujourd'hui en nombre mais finalement très peu d'entre elles prennent le parti pris de faire de ces manifestations, de véritables moments de rencontres et de complicités entre les auteurs et le public.Nous accordons une grande importance au contact et à l'échange pour favoriser les relations avec des dessinateurs et illustrateurs créatifs et disponibles. A travers notre soutien à ces artistes, nous souhaitons aussi donner la parole à la création et non à l'industrie du 9ème art.

Cette 5e édition sera une fois de plus l'occasion de rassembler une communauté d¹artistes ayant pour point commun le fait d'être talentueux et complémentaires dans leur travail. L'accent sera par ailleurs mis sur la présentation d'oeuvres originales et l'organisation d'ateliers de création.

Manifestation singulière dans le paysage culturel régional, illiko proposera, durant toute une semaine, de nombreuses expositions et rencontres d'auteurs dessinateurs et illustrateurs étonnants; des ateliers scolaires avec Bruno Heitz à la médiathèque jeunesse ; le fameux concours d'illustration ayant cette année pour thème "Comment mettre la cerise sur le gâteau ?" et enfin, un week-end de temps forts au cours duquel le public pourra faire quelques emplettes (de livres bien sûr !!!), assister au vernissage des expositions, participer à des rencontres dédicaces avec les auteurs et savourer le concert de José Parrondo. Bref, une 5e édition éclectique, riche en surprises et surtout loin des flonflons. A consommer sans modération !"
