Houses in Comic Strips

The Autrique House is the ideal setting for a discussion on houses … in a graphic novel! But when you think about it, what actually is a house? The word 'HOUSE' has several meanings. It can therefore be considered from several different perspectives: architectural, social, domestic, political… With "Houses in Comic Strips", visitors can discover how comic book artists have explored this concept of a “house”. From History to decoration, and from the inhabitants themselves to the interiors of their homes. From June 2026 to February 2027, five lectures will broaden the theme and open new perspectives: from the history of the Brussels townhouse to the story of a passionate Victor Horta enthusiast.
