Overview

The fourth edition of Europa Ilustra opens its doors from 3 June to 18 October at Casa del Lector in Matadero Madrid, with a selection of works by eleven illustrators from various European countries.

Organised by the network of European cultural institutes EUNIC Madrid in collaboration with Casa del Lector, the exhibition offers a visual journey through styles, techniques and narratives that reflect the creative richness of the European art scene today.

The show brings together proposals from Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Finland, France, Hungary, Italy, the Czech Republic, Romania, Sweden and French-speaking Belgium (Wallonia-Brussels), and offers a plural perspective in which fantasy, visual poetry, graphic experimentation and reflection on identity, memory or nature coexist.

At the opening are the Austrian Anna Horak, the Finnish Miila Westin, the French Pauline Barzilaï and the French-speaking Belgian Gaya Wisniewski. Europa Ilustra champions illustration as an artistic language capable of building bridges between cultures and sensibilities, in keeping with EUNIC Madrid's commitment to an open, diverse European culture in dialogue with contemporary society.
