Drawing traumatic history – a discussion
Leopold Maurer and Regina Hofer discuss their graphic novel INSECTS on 13 May from 5.30 as part of the Comics/Society cultural workshop at Kelet Kávézó és Galéria.
Insects is a brutally honest work about realizing the fact and the consequences of Leopold Maurer’s grandfather being a Nazi and committing war crimes in WW2. The graphic novel visualizes memories, mixing them with abstract images, and it tells a story about the nature of cruelty and war in both text and images. The artists sign their work after the discussion and on 14 May in Dürer Kert.
