History Talks

The Power of Cartoons

| accessibility.time_to

with Patrick Chappatte and Monika Schärer

Cartoons have the ability to transcend culture, language and time barriers while evoking a range of emotions and delivering impactful messages. Some of them capture the spirit of the time so well that they become important testimonies of today for the future. 

The Geneva-based Patrick Chappatte is a pioneer of graphic journalism and one of the worldwide best-known political cartoonists. His drawings are sharp – sometimes they even reach the pain threshold. In a discussion hosted by the renowned presenter Monika Schärer, Chappatte will talk about the power and powerlessness of a cartoonist, about the reactions and dangers of his profession and his passionate advocating for freedom of expression and press. 

The event takes place in english.
