This photographic series by Daniela Comani, is an excursus into perception as it relates to the media. With painstaking precision she probes that ever-present device for the reproduction of moving images, the television set, but in off mode: turned off, TV sets seem dead, they become cold objects ? and yet concomitantly they serve as surfaces for viewers to project their own fantasies and fears on. Even when the picture is extinguished, the TV is still not bereft of content, for the dark screen reflects the room and the people and objects in it.

"Dans le supermarché Batax, on trouve de tout, comme le rêvait le fondateur de cette entreprise familiale qui a réussi. Mais entre pressions au rendement, clients mécontents et syndicats complaisants, la vie derrière la caisse n'est pas facile. A force de tout encaisser, on risque de craquer..."

The debut graphic novel from a dazzling newcomer with a singular, idiosyncratic style. Big Kids is simultaneously Michael DeForge's most straightforward narrative and his most complex work to date. It follows a troubled teenage boy through the transformative years of high school as he redefines his friends, his interests, and his life path. When the boy's uncle, a police officer, gets kicked out of the family's basement apartment and transferred to the countryside, April moves in. She's college student, mysterious and cool, and she quickly takes a shine to the boy. The boy's own interests quickly fade away: he stops engaging in casual sex, taking drugs, and testing the limits of socially acceptable (and legal) behavior. Instead, he hangs out with April and her friends, a bunch of highly evolved big kids who spend their days at the campus swimming pool. And slowly, the boy begins to change, too. Eerie and perfectly paced, DeForge's Big Kids muses on the complicated, and often contradictory, feelings people struggle with during adolescence, the choices we make to fit in, and the ways we survive times of change. Like Ant Colony and First Year Healthy, Big Kids is a testimony to the harshness and beauty of being alive.

Baskenland, Spanje. Een groen paradijs met woeste stranden aan de Atlantische Oceaan, maar ook een bergachtig gebied van duistere dorpen en motregen dat jarenlang geteisterd werd door de terreur van de ETA. Zich baserend op het autobiografische verhaal van Mark Bellido, maakte Judith Vanistendael een indrukwekkende beeldroman over een snoepverkoper die besluit bodyguard te worden. Maar tijdens het beschermen van de bedreigde politici verdwijnt hij meer en meer in een schaduwbestaan dat hem langzaam fataal dreigt te worden.
