Graphic narratives and memory of the Shoah: the challenges of transmitting encounter

Monday, April 13, 2026 at 9 PM

In the context of Yom HaShoah

At a time when the last witnesses disappear, comic strips and graphic novels occupy an increasing place in the transmission of the memory of the Shoah. How has graphic creation become a central relay of memory transmission? How to reach a younger audience while preserving historical rigor? Around a panel composed of illustrators and historians, this meeting questions the aesthetic, ethical and pedagogical issues of graphic narrative.

Opening by Charles Tenenbaum, EEIF.

In the presence of Jérémie Dres, Les Fantômes de la rue Freta (Bayard, 2025), Boris Golzio, Lili still standing to the end (with Lili Leignel, Glénat, 2026) and Pierre-Roland Saint-Dizier, La Maison des enfants: l'incroyable sauvetage des enfants juifs de Moissac (Plein Vent, 2025).

Moderated by Mathias Orjekh, coordinator of the study tours, Mémorial de la Shoah, and Léa Taieb, journalist at Tenoua.
