A fresh breeze sweeps through the world of Francophone comics. Next October, the IFM media library will host an event around the release of "The Shadows of Evenings, a fugue of Arthur Rimbaud," a new graphic novel born from the meeting of two creators: Joan de Crane, French screenwriter, and Liva Rajaobelina, Malagasy illustrator. The fruit of four years of work, this project is an artistic bridge connecting two cultures. Faithful to the poet's spirit, the comic revisits the figure of Rimbaud by offering him a new dimension: that of a wandering adolescent, seeking freedom, on the roads of Charleroi. "In a few words, it's a biographical testimony, a documented narrative, around young Rimbaud, a wandering adolescent on the road to Charleroi. A notebook halfway between graphic novel, travel journal, and initiatory adventure," explains Joan de Crane. This hybrid narrative, between graphic novel and travel journal, is part of a transmission approach, but also of reinvention. It is not merely about telling Rimbaud's story, but about making it resonate differently, through a singular aesthetic and visual writing that blends European and Malagasy sensibilities. Liva Rajaobelina brings to the work a graphic depth nourished by his cultural roots, while Joan de Crane inscribes the narrative in a French literary tradition. Together, they offer a work that transcends borders and invites rediscovering Rimbaud from an unprecedented angle. The release of "The Shadows of Evenings" marks an important milestone for Malagasy comics, which is increasingly asserting itself on the international stage. The event planned for October promises to be a celebration of this artistic encounter, where readings, exhibitions, and discussions about this creation will intertwine.
