As part of the Green Autumn cycle, the exhibition A World Without End, inspired by the eponymous comic strip by Jean-Marc Jancovici and Christophe Blain, opens on Thursday 16 November at 7.30 p.m. in the Gallery of the Instituto Francés.
The exhibition, adapted from the album, illustrates the meeting and dialogue between the two authors, Jean-Marc Jancovici and Christophe Blain, on the theme of energy: its use throughout history, the rise of fossil fuels and the impact of humanity on its environment and, in particular, on climate change.
There is no doubt about it: action is needed! But where do we start and what can we do? Carbon-free energy, food, transport, urban planning: the exhibition also looks at possible solutions. Since its publication in 2021, the comic book Le Monde sans fin/ The World Without End has been a great success: it was the best-selling book in France in 2022, with more than 800,000 copies, and has been translated into many languages. Through the various panels, the exhibition raises awareness of the impact of our lifestyle on the environment and the improvements that can be made.
