Presentation

For the first time since Georges Wolinski’s death in 2015, the Huberty & Breyne’s Paris gallery is showing an exceptional collection of drawings by the celebrated cartoonist.

This hommage to Georges Wolinski – a selection of 70 drawings from among the most representative of the artist’s work – coincides with the 90th anniversary of his birth (in Tunis in 1934) and highlights Wolinski’s favourite themes and the different ways in which he chose to express them, from humorous drawing to comic-book panel, rough sketch to published image, in black and white and in colour and typically combining insolence, mockery, laughter, love and passion.
 
By immersing ourselves in his work, we accept that Wolinski will shake up our ideas.  And that what he brings us is a mixture of autobiography and fiction, always firmly anchored in the reality of its time, always sincere.
