Comic Art Award

The new generation

Pleasant characteristics of the new Dutch comic generation are:

1. a lot of female designers emerge

2. more attention is paid to comic design as an art form.

Also more and more comic artists publish graphical art in small numbers themselves and for very reasonable prices.

To activate this trend Griffioen Grafiek in co-operation with Bernard Ruijgrok Piëzogriafie called into existence an annual Comic Art Award for differentiated graphical art.

 

StripGrafiekPrijs / Comic Art Award

Since the Comic Art Fair 2010 Griffioen Grafiek and master-printer Bernard Ruijgrok Piëzografie, grant every year three prizes (giclée print budgets) for producing new comic graphical art : graphical art made by storytelling artists like comic artists, animators and illustrators.
