Le Monde sans fin (World Without End)
The exhibition offers a selection of content and works illustrating and questioning the major issues linked to the environmental crisis. Le Monde sans fin by Jean-Marc Jancovici and Christophe Blain is the first best-selling book in France with more than 800,000 copies sold in 2022 and translations into many languages.
The exhibition, adapted from this album, illustrates the meeting and dialogue between its two authors on the subjects of energy and climate: uses throughout history, the rise of fossil fuels, the impact of humanity on its environment and, in particular, on the climate. Non-carbon energies, food, transport, urban planning, the exhibition also addresses possible solutions.
Two stallholders related to recycling and ecology will be present on the occasion of the exhibition Le Monde sans fin:
- Needle Bow: is a sustainable brand of tailor-made accessories and clothing. Séverine will be present on Saturday 13 and 27 April, from 10:30am. to 6:30pm.
- La Belle Adventure: Bookshop dedicated to European comics translated in English and original French. Anabelle & Benoit will be present on Wednesday 10 and 17 April from 2pm to 6pm, with a copy of “Le Monde sans fin” for consultation on site.
