The new Comics Beyond database is online!
A European network for live comics artists and performers
Subscribe to our newsletter
Starting this October, the website comicsbeyond.eu hosts an ambitious new platform: a database dedicated to European artists working at the intersection of comics and the performing arts.
The goal? To build real connections between creators, festivals, cultural institutions, and organizations — fostering new collaborations and professional opportunities.
Within the database, each artist can:
- create a personal professional profile,
- upload one or more projects,
- make their work visible to organizers and institutions across Europe.
The platform is searchable by keyword and nationality, with an intuitive and accessible interface — a concrete step toward expanding the creative and professional horizons of those who make comics a living, ever-evolving language.
📍 The database is online: www.comicsbeyond.eu
The partners
Comics Beyond is supported by the European Commission as part of the Creative Europe – Cultural cooperation projects (small scale) program. Four comics professional structures from different countries are cooperating to make the project a reality: the Brussels Comic Art Museum (Belgium), Amadora BD (Portugal), Rendez-vous BD Amiens (France) and COMICON Napoli (Italy), in partnership with Escola Joso (Spain), Art Bubble Festival (Denmark) and the Lakes International Comic Arts Festival (United-Kingdom).
Led by the Brussels Comic Art Museum, Comics Beyond brings together all of these renowned international partners, each one working on different aspects of the project, to make the project’s mission a reality and to develop an European network for comic art.
