Christophe Dubois

Through his bold choices and the precision of his line, Christophe Dubois has created a world of his own, recognizable at a glance. The stark contrasts of colour, reminiscent of Philippe Caza, give these pages a unique atmosphere, at the crossroads of poetry and absolute escapism.

Pencils, graphite and colored pencils are long-lasting. Pieces in wax crayon, black lead or charcoal require special care to avoid rubbing. However, never expose them to direct light. Like all materials, the paper used for these works is susceptible to change when exposed to UV light.
We advise you to display them away from windows, and to use frames made from pH-neutral conservation materials and “Museum” glass with anti-UV and anti-reflective treatment. If you prefer to keep your works unframed, we recommend storing them flat, in drawing cartons, with sheets of pH-neutral permanent paper in between. Keep them away from light and humidity.

Born in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Christophe Dubois began his career as a graphic designer before returning to his first love: comic art. In 2007, his collaboration with scriptwriter Nicolas Pona gave rise to Le Cycle d’Ostruce, a four-volume series published by Éditions du Lombard, in which he displayed a striking artistic style made of large, bold blocks of colour that were incredibly effective. In 2012, he created the two-part series La Ballade de Magdalena, before teaming up with scriptwriter Rodolphe for the science-fiction series TER (2017), published by Éditions Daniel Maghen, which was followed by a new series entitled TERRE from 2020 onwards. The duo also created Rockabilly, a one-shot about the liberating power of art and music in the heart of rural America.
