Minneapolis ❤

ChiFouMi got some strong love for Minneapolis since importants bits of our little story is directly linked to this city.
To the people we met there, to those who made ChiFouMi-related things happened there, for the energy we get there, and for the strong and vivid memories we share from there.
Right now we think about Zak, Kevin, Jaime, Mandie, Barb, Dan, Bart, Jenny, Jordan, Caitlin, Jack, Peter, Noah, Raighne, Maggie, Tom, etc, all at MCAD and Autoptic, and to all the other people there, dealing also with their legitimate anger, their deep disgust, their sadness too.

His name was George Floyd.

“Some Breath King / Break Something”, PFC#4 residents book.

If you’re familiar with PFC, perhaps you noticed that each year, we launch some crazy project-inside-the-project kind of thing : trying to make some book appears from this nice artists gathering, during the one and only very week where they’re all around.

For PFC#4, our main man Anders Nilsen, always on the run when it comes to add one more thing on his already giant-double-XXL to-do-list, decided to take care about it. Months before the beginning of the residency, he remembered that during his own PFC#3 residency in France, back in 2011, he was part of the giant process that our friends from Icinori launched while here. And he got the idea to work on his very own twist about it. (more…)

PFC#4 pre-afterword.

Well, it’s been a few days since PFC#4 is over. What an incredible adventure it was for us at ChiFouMi, and how many memories we got to share now…
The next blognote will be a big, huge kind of resume of the fourth instalment of our little comic book laboratory ; it will take a few days to find its way here, so hopefully you’ll be patient enough (shitty jetlag !) !
But before that, maybe a little “thumbs up !” to the shadow people, those who doesn’t appears on every picture or in every summary, but that without whom PFC#4 probably didn’t look the same (or didn’t look this nice !). (more…)

And how was Autoptic ?

In a single word : DOPE.
In a few : incredible organisation, super nice location, awesome exhibitors, great panels, exciting public.
In a few pictures : (more…)

Last day.

This was PFC#4 last day.
So many things to tell, but as today is the AUTOPTIC long-awaited day and that there’s still plenty of stuff to do, we’ll be back soon to talk about all of these crazy last hours…
