Tasmar – Live Drawing Sessions

Theatre Mikis Theodorakis

The truth is that the job of cartoonist/comic creator is very lonely. He spends endless hours at the drawing board creating yet more images and pages. That is why when he is given the opportunity to present to the public the way he works, it is something that makes him happy. So, Tasmar will draw live in the festival of Chaniartoon. The projects that will be created will be given among the attendees of the live.

Disney comics and political correctness

Theatre Mikis Theodorakis

On the occasion of the recent decision by the multinational giant, The Walt Disney Company, to suspend, among other things, the republishing of some of the stories of the legendary comic creator Don Rosa (The Life And State Of Scrooge McDuck) as part of the renewal of its inclusion policies and diversity, we look at the impact of political correctness on Art and comics – with a particular interest in the production of stories featuring Disney characters.

70 Years Mikros Iros (Album)

Theatre Mikis Theodorakis

Rarely has a magazine left such a mark on the hearts and souls of its readers as Mikros Iros, written by Stelios Anemodouras from 1953 to 1968 under the pseudonym «Thanos Astritis» and illustrated with his sketches by Byron Aptosoglou. This anniversary album of 228 pages is the most comprehensive study of the Little Hero phenomenon with rare and unpublished but also valuable information. In addition, it includes 45 new sketches by Greek artists that will be presented in the exhibition for the 70th anniversary, but also an unpublished true story of Thanos Astritis in drawings by Vassilis Goggilas, which is the starting point of this huge journey called Mikros Heros.
