After transferring from a law firm to a publishing company, Gregory Limpens has handled the publishing process of graphic novels and comic books which in turn nurtured in him an uncommon passion for comics. Belgian comics are reputable for their literary value which has earned them a title of “the 9th art.” They are not to be simply considered as mere entertainment for children. Gregory Limpens will be talking about the Belgian comics’ past, present and future. He will be also delivering the process of new generation Belgian comic artists’ attempt to stretch out the traditional boundary of comics. 법률사무소에서 출판사로 이직을 한 뒤, 외국소설과 그래픽노블 출판 기획을 맡고 있는 림펜스의 만화에 대한 애착은 남다르다. 단순히 오락으로 읽혀지는 아이들을 위한 책이 아닌 벨기에 만화는 그 문학성과 실험적인 시도로 이미 '제9의 예술'이라는 평을 받고 있다. 림펜스는 벨기에 만화의 과거, 현재 그리고 미래를 이야기 하며 신세대의 벨기에 만화가들이 새롭게 독창적이고 고유한 만화의 영역을 넓혀나가는 현장을 전달한다. What is TEDx? In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
