Musée des Confluences
86 quai Perrache - 69002 Lyon 2ème
Hugo Pratt à Malamocco (Venise, Italie - 1979)
In the minds of those familiar with his work, the name Hugo Pratt immediately conjures up the silhouette of Corto Maltese, the romantic and enigmatic sailor, adventurer and explorer of faraway lands, from the “Great North” to the “Great Ocean”.
This exhibition at the Musée des Confluences is devoted to the discovery of this exceptional cartoonist and his influences, insatiable curiosity and imagination, which was fed by his travels across the world’s continents and oceans, his reading and his taste for encounters and wonder. Scenes from his comic strips are shown alongside objects from the museum’s collections.
An immersive exhibition and an invitation to travel.
Entrance to the museum and exhibition is free with the Lyon City Card

Collector's original visuals and voice have made it a big hit in Lyon. It offers locals a different view of their city: more modern, more urban, and even a little offbeat. In just a few years, this guide has become the repertoire of “places to be”. It opens doors to somewhat secret worlds – just the way we like them in Lyon. The cover image is evidence enough, featuring the world of Nathalie Rives, bursting with personality, and her gallery.
