Swiss press cartoon retrospective 2024

If we are to believe the cartoons published throughout the year, over 160 of which have been selected for this exhibition, the world is nothing but suffering, blood and flames. Press cartoons certainly make you laugh, but there comes a time when the alarm goes beyond laughter.

37 cartoonists took part, including some newcomers from the German-speaking part of Switzerland. The Maison du Dessin de Presse is delighted to include them in this selection, a sign of the greater synergy between Switzerland's different linguistic regions.

The Maison du Dessin de Presse is taking advantage of the opening day of the Retrospective on December 7 to celebrate its 15th anniversary at the Morges Cultural Centre. Its first exhibition, dedicated to André Paul Perret, opened on November 25, 2009. Since then, 54 exhibitions have followed, all devoted to press cartoons, often accompanied by meetings, round tables and workshops, making this venue a “real” home.
Free admission

The Maison du Dessin de Presse will be open during the Morges market noctures on December 20 and 23 from 3pm to 9pm.
