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

As part of Yom HaShoah

At a time when the last witnesses are disappearing, comics and graphic novels have an increasing place in the transmission of the memory of the Shoah. How did graphic design become a central relay for memorial transmission? How to reach a younger audience while preserving historical rigor? Around a panel composed of cartoonists and historians, this meeting questions the aesthetic, ethical and pedagogical issues of graphic narrative.
