comiXculture II Description:
comiXculture II is a project hunting for a different approach to differences.
The works of artists like Joe Sacco, Art Spiegelman and Marjane Satrapi prove that the comiX genre (besides its commercial use by multinational companies) has the power to X-ray prejudices and to challenge social inertia and clich?s.
comiXculture II aims at employing the genre’s distinctive combination of drawings and words to tell the real stories of people who are easily labeled as different, pushed to the margins of society or simply ignored because of their ethnicity, culture, religion or sexuality.
To do that, comiXculture II has gathered renowned comiX artists, with backgrounds in socially engaged projects from all around Eastern Europe and from Lebanon. They met twice for joint workshops and personally experienced unusual cultural contexts: the East European artists went to Beirut and the Lebanese illustrators visited Sofia. Now they are drawing comiX, discussing issues of diversity, exploring senses of belonging or never fitting in, crossing cultural borders, facing prejudices and discrimination.
