Manhua Exhibition in U.K.The big (and free) exhibition looming on the horizon is MANHUA! CHINA COMICS NOW, from March 7th to April 11th at the London College of Communication, SE1. It's been a fantastic opportunity for me as curator to research this culture and work with some excellent experts to source both major mainstream hits and cult and underground alternatives, from mainland China as well as from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Details are on the site and much more info and images will follow soon: http://www.paulgravett.com/events/manhua/manhua.htm Another date for your diary, Tuesday March 25th, 9.30am-6pm, brings a China Comics Now Study Day, all day with a dozen international guests including major artists. This will be a free event, supported by the China Now Festival, but you will need to book, as numbers are limited. I'll email you as soon as know how you can book. There will also be an evening reception afterwards. |
