The Mus\u00e9e des Tissus in Lyon is the venue for an exhibit dedicated to Corto Maltese: from 31 May to 28 July, the museum will host the exhibition \u2018Hugo Pratt, the heritage, the artwork, the biography\u2019<\/a>. And in the run-up to the Lyon Festival BD 2024, scheduled from 7 to 9 June, Juan D\u00edaz canales and Rub\u00e9n Pellejero also arrive.<\/h1>\n

Organised by the Italian Cultural Institute of Lyon with the support of the Auvergne-Rh\u00f4ne-Alpes Region, in collaboration with Cong SA, the exhibition is part of the 19th Lyon International Comics Festival, hosted in one of the city’s most emblematic historical sites. After Pula (Croatia), Valona, (Albania), Oslo (Norway), Qu\u00e9bec City (Canada) and Athens (Greece), the travelling exhibition dedicated to Hugo Pratt, chosen as a symbol of Italian language and culture in the world, arrives in Lyon.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Six years after the stunning success of the \u2018Hugo Pratt – Lignes d’horizons\u2019 exhibition at the Mus\u00e9e des Confluences, Corto Maltese is returning to Lyon, and the Lyon BD Festival will feature an exhibition of the original plates by Rub\u00e9n Pellejero, who together with screenwriter Juan D\u00edaz Canales has revived the Corto Maltese stories with four new episodes, and a fifth on the way.<\/h3>\n

The exhibition experience is further enriched: on Sunday 9 June at 11 a.m., the authors will take on the role of exceptional museum guides. Available by appointment only, Canales and Pellejero will accompany visitors on an exclusive journey through the history, origins and future prospects of the works on display, offering an intimate and detailed look at their creative process.<\/p>\n<\/div>
