Angouleme rewards quality
The international festival of comics, which is held annually in Angoulême (France), it remains essential to find a reference publishing projects devoted to graphic literature in all its variants. Each January, the Festival International de la Bande Dessinée celebrates its exhibition, which presents news, discusses comics and delivered the prizes to the best album released in the previous year. Between 24 and February 27, 2008 has taken place the 35 th edition of this important festival, which gave his Fauve d'Or prize for best album at best, to work Là où vont nos pères, Shaun Tan, edited by Dargaud. Unlike in other years, the winning entry was published in Spain. With the title Emigrants, Barbara Fiori editorial published in April 2007 this conmevodora history, where the words are substituted by locuaces images created by Shaun Tan, author of international standing, whose previous works have also been published in Spain by Editorial Cadiz. The award recognizes both the value of a story full of humanity, as the quality of an artist that has been established between the major representatives of a realistic illustration and personnel. In addition, the award should serve as an impetus to new Spanish publishers, who are offering collections laden with beauty and risk.
