China in London: Manhua! China Comics Now
Be part of China in London with the Manhua! China Comics Now exhibition
Enjoy a free comic exhibition at the London College of Communication as part of the China in London series of events.
This free exhibition explores the art and stories within modern Chinese comic books. For the first time ever in the UK, the quality, diversity and individuality of Chinese comics from the last 25 years will be on display.
In three galleries, visitors can enjoy their original and digital artworks, printed materials, computer displays and merchandise. The exhibition spans from China's pioneers and Hong Kong's martial arts masters to the latest waves of talents, who are becoming recognised as world-class creators.
There will also be the opportunity to view select work from Taiwan and Hong Kong. The exhibition is curated by Paul Gravett, director of Comica, London's International Comics Festival at the ICA and author of Manga: Sixty Years of Japanese Comics, Graphic Novels: Stories To Change Your Life, and Great British Comics.
The event runs until Friday April 11th and is open from 10am to 7.30pm Monday to Friday and from 10am to 6pm on Saturdays.
