Belgian photonovels on display in Leuven!
A piece of good news in these strange times: in two weeks' time the exhibition "Photo-Lit: Photonovel Culture in Belgium" opens its doors at the University Library of Leuven! The exhibition is the closing event of the four-year-long Photo-Lit project. It revolves around the Belgian photonovel, showcasing the results of our research and disclosing the immense corpus of photonovels that have been published in Belgium from the 1950s. Where were these photonovels published? When?
