Have your mouth ever watered at the sight of Obelix's boar? Or Naruto ramen? And yes, more than once, comics have whetted our appetite. Juicy, plump, buttery drawings that tempt us, leaning over the page. The exhibition offers us an appetizing journey that grills food and drawing in the same pan. The experience is meant to be sensitive. We sniff, we touch, we listen and we observe, like the few seconds that precede the toothless bite we inflict on the burger. An inexhaustible object of study in comics, food interferes in the most eccentric images. Take a bite! The comic strip puts its feet in the dish!

Did you know?
