Location: Fumetto Comic Festival Luzern (Maskenliebhabersaal, Süsswinkel 7, 6004 Luzern)

Thomas Ott is the figurehead of Swiss comics and has a lot to say about the 40 years of Swiss underground, comic and music culture that have shaped him – and that he has helped to shape. In conversation with Anette Gehrig, curator and director of Cartoonmuseum Basel, Thomas Ott talks about his ‘Strapazin’ years, his time as a film-maker, his parallel life as a rock singer, and his current works. He will also create a scratchboard image live!

In cooperation with Fumetto Comic Festival Lucerne
