20th Edition Week of the Italian Language in the World: Comics in Museums | Fumetti nei musei

Under the High Patronage of the President of the Republic of Italy

Fumetti nei musei (Comics in Museums) is a project geared to children and teens who participate in museum laboratories: they are volumes that recount, through comic arts, the contemporaneity of Italian museums; lively places where incredible stories take place and where the imagination is driven down new narrative paths between evocations from the past and sci-fi scenarios.

51 comics, awarded the prestigious Gran Guinigi Prize for the best editorial initiative of the year at the 2018 edition of Lucca Comics and Games, offer their young readers an unpublished story and a different vision of the museum collection.

Not everything is as it seems in museums, and sometimes, it is enough to perceive an unusual detail to find oneself catapulted into an infinite time inside mind-blowing stories, between characters that actually existed, monsters, fantastical creatures, ghosts and superheroes.

A volume (in Italian) of the 51 comics has been produced by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Co-Operation for the 20th edition of the Week of the Italian Language in the World. The collection will be available for browsing at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura Toronto.

Furthermore, featured content will be available consisting of short video-documentaries (in Italian) on the profession of the comic artist and on the comics publishing profession. CLICK HERE TO VIEW.

Finally, between October 20– 24, 5 webinars will be hosted by the Italian Cultural Institutes of Madrid, São Paulo, New York, Tokyo and Abu Dhabi.
