Sunday guided tour

In his touching and complex graphic novel “Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth”, Chris Ware from the USA found a new and surprising visual language with which to show the wounds and consequences of two consecutive failed father-son relationships. This multi-award-winning book, which breaks many of the unwritten rules of comics, is a milestone of the ninth art in both a narrative and artistic sense. Based on the exhibited original drawings, sketchbooks and objects, the guided tour with Judith Schifferle looks into this exceptional artist’s narrative style and visual language.
