Brecht Evens

Brecht Evens (b. 1986) stands out for the style so typical of his work: he doesn’t use contour lines or balloons for text, but paints exuberant scenes and familiar dialogues in sequence, using an overwhelming colour palette. He surprises the reader with every new book, and every new page. In 2019, he was awarded the Prix Spécial du Jury at the Angoulême Comics Festival for The City of Belgium, and in 2024, he received the Bronzen Adhemar, the Belgian oeuvre prize for comics.
