I was recently invited by Benjamin Moriamé to host a conference on the theme "Art and Militancy" at the FUCID (FUCID, in English: "University Foundation of International Cooperation for Development"). I explained my evolution as a political illustrator, I spoke about the importance of political art nowadays and I also focused on the limits of freedom of expression in political cartooning.

I've illustrated in the past several bulletins published by the FUCID. The FUCID is a non-governmental organization located in the University campus of Namur, Belgium. It intends to bring lasting social, political and environmental changes and promotes solidarity and citizenship.

Warm thanks to Benjamin Moriamé for inviting me and for giving me the chance to use my freedom of speech and have an interesting debate with students.

Have a look at the FUCID bulletin (FUCID, in English, "University Foundation of International Cooperation for Development", is a non-governmental organization based in Namur, Belgium). By clicking on the image above, read the full report in pdf (this month, the main subjects are the situation in Burma, Congo and Benin). Sorry it's only available in French.

Warm thanks to Benjamin Moriamé for using one of my paintings in the cover... Benjamin Moriamé is a talented Belgian journalist who wrote several articles in the presented bulletin.
