Exhibition and Talk

PorterShed a Dó, Market Street

Talk: 5.30pm, Saturday 4th October

Tignous (Bernard Verlhac) was a much-loved star of French cartooning, who began to contribute to Charlie Hebdo, Fluide Glaciale, Marianne and other major comic and satirical publications at the age of 23. While his work covered about any social or political issue you could name, he was most associated in the public mind with environmental causes – the plight of the panda particularly.

We are grateful to his widow Chloé for allowing us to exhibit his work, and for speaking to us about the artist she knew.
