K3 research seminars with Comics Hub: Processing death and grief in graphic novels

Magnus Jonason: Måste ringa brorsan (cover)

Wed 2022-11-16 14:00 – 16:00. Niagara building, Nordenskiöldsgatan 1, Malmö. NIC0541-K3 studio. (5th floor).

Magnus Jonasons autobiographical book Måste ringa brorsan (2022) deals with strong emotions like sorrow, grief and co-dependency. In contrast to many contemporary Swedish autobiographical comic artists, Jonason’s works in a realistic style and show meticulous attention to detail and setting. He originally started out as acomics artist, but has for the last decades worked with storyboards, for ad-agencys, as well as movies–  among them Tomas Alfredsson’s Låt den rätte komma in (2008) and Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (2011). Jonasons position between often compared artforms (comics and film) poses important questions of narrative similarities as well as differences between these. The seminar will begin with an introduction by Gunnar Krantz. 

All welcome! 

The seminar is hybrid. Welcome to K3 studio or https://mau-se.zoom.us/j/62522949096
