Frederik Peeters (Genf)
The Simplicity of being (Forum Suisse Romande)
03_“Brandgässli” gallery
Peeters tells of life with amazingly simple and easy flowing strokes. Whether it’s a crime story, science fiction, children’s story or autobiographical piece, Peeters knows each genre and just how to apply the picture language required. Even when dealing with delicate subjects, he manages to capture the reader and encourage him or her to think without turning complicated or teacher-like.

M.S. Bastian/Isabelle L. (Biel)
The world between Art & Comics
08_“Pia-Anna” gallery
It’s pure elegance the way M.S. Bastian moves between pop culture and art. He proves again and again that there is only an artificial line between the two. In his latest work together with Isabelle L. he demonstrates with wit and humour just how entertaining (but at the same time deep) elements from the art & comic worlds can be combined.

Laura Jurt (Luzern/Zürich)
Pictures that move
15_“Das Ding” gallery
www.laurajurt.ch
Laura Jurt bluffs her way through numerous styles, styles of which she appears to naturally have under control. The dream-like feelings in her pictures seem to capture the viewer, (almost against ones will), and never let one go. Laura Jurt has created an exhibition room for Fumetto and will be displaying her latest work exclusively at this year’s festival.
