Presentation

Alain Huberty and Marc Breyne are delighted to be taking part in the 1-54 art fair due to be held in London from the 4th to the 7th of October.Our stand for this 2018 edition will be dedicated exclusively to the work of South African artist.
Anton Kannemeyer. Kannemeyer, editor and co-founder of Bitterkomix magazine, varies his supports (drawings, paintings, multiples) to illustrate the foibles and failings of his contemporaries in bold and sharply satirical ways.
He happily links modern political references with references to the ligne claire, the comics style pioneered by the great Belgian cartoonist Hergé, in a bid to encourage his viewers to reflect on racism, greed and corruption, religion and the pitfalls of power. No one who sees these works can be left indifferent.
