"  A little writer, a little designer, a little filmer and a little actor  ". This is how Didier Tronchet describes himself on his personal web page. This jack of all trades has come a long way since the birth of Raymond Calbuth and Jean-Claude Tergal. Characters whose adventures full of black humor were awarded at Angoulême. There was also Raoul Fulgurex, the Damned of the Earth Associates, there was “Over there” and a whole series of travel accounts, notably in Latin America and Madagascar. He returns a little singer, with his album "  The lost singer  ", published by Aire Libre. And cyclist too. He also publishes a new version of his "  Little Treatise on Velosophy  ", published by Delcourt. In the saddle, therefore, with Didier Tronchet!

Report :  In Bolivia, last week, an announcement shook the entire cultural sector. The Ministry of Culture has just been abolished by the interim president Jeanine Añez, to save money to face the health crisis. The artists mobilize and raise their voices. According to them, culture is not only an important economic sector but poses, above all troublesome questions. Our correspondent Alice Campaignolle explains the challenges of this situation.
