TIME FOR RENEWAL!

Viken Berberian, born in Lebanon to an Armenian family, grew up in Los Angeles. He teaches rhetoric and comics at the American University of Armenia. He writes for various philosophical and literary journals around the world. Translated into several languages, including French by Claro, his works offer a mischievous satire of economic and political injustices. He is the co-author, along with Yann Kebbi, of La structure est pourrie, camarade (Actes Sud, 2017).
Set against the backdrop of the Armenian capital and its architectural revolution, Viken Berberian and his absurd humor, combined with the monumental energy of Yann Kebbi’s drawings, create a grotesque yet strikingly realistic portrait of our world. "We must rebuild everything; it’s time to say goodbye to the old historical buildings and embrace renewal!"
Hosted by: Antoine Perraud, journalist at Mediapart.
