Miville-Deschênes & Landa Exhibition

Basque author, Juan Luis Landa Landa marks his grand return to the European comic art scene with the Arthus Trivium, series, written by Raule, the fourth volume of which is due to be published shortly. A fantasy thriller and historical epic, this saga features the famous Nostradamus and his disciples in 16th-century France, a period marked by violence and epidemics. It is a breathless swashbuckling tale brought to life by Landa's baroque and sensual style. His mastery of wash drawing produces spectacular black and white pages that perfectly capture the oppressive atmosphere of the series. Around fifty pages and illustrations from the first three Arthus Trivium albums will be on display, along with a selection of pages from the latest installment.

In a realistic style, François Miville-Deschenes reveals his graphic virtuosity in Reconquêtes, a fantasy epic written by Sylvain Runberg. The duo plunges the reader eight centuries before Christ into a violent and mystical world where three nomadic peoples of Central Asia unite to overthrow the enemy. Suspicious glances, fabulous creatures, bloody battles, witchcraft... François Miville-Deschênes delivers a flawless artwork with powerful and dynamic storytelling. His oil paintings showcase his talent, offering superb mythological scenes where the composition highlights the strength and beauty of the Sarmatian warriors. More than seventy pages, covers, and original paintings will be on display at the exhibition.
