Benoît Crucifix
Benoît Crucifix is a postdoctoral research at Ghent University. His Ph.D. dissertation, conducted at ULiège and UCLouvain as a FNRS fellow, looked into the gestures of transmission that shape and organize comics memory in the contemporary North American graphic novel. His current research, as a part of the ERC-funded COMICS programme, bears on children’s drawing and creative tactics of child readers in European bande dessinée. He co-edited the essay collection Comics Memory: Archives and Styles (Palgrave, 2018) with Maaheen Ahmed, and the two-volume Bande dessinée et Abstraction (Abstraction and Comics) with ACME (Presses universitaires de Liège and La 5e couche, 2019).
