Ben Heine
بن هاين - ساحل العاج
Born in Abidjan, Ivory coast, June 12, 1983, Ben Heine studied
Communication and Journalism at the Institut des Hautes Etudes
des Communications Sociales - IHECS (Brussels) and Painting and
History of Art at the Académie Royale des Beaux Arts de
Bruxelles (Belgium) and at the Hastings college of Arts &
Technology (England).
Beside is conventional
studies Ben is mostly a self made cartoonist, painter and
illustrator. He currently produces political and artistic
cartoons relating to day to day international or Belgian
political issues and he intends to arouse reflection through the
eyes of provocation and imagination. His paintings are rather
mystical with expressive touches and could be classified as
“erotico fantastico burlesque”.
Ben Heine has participated in a large number
of humour events and cartoon contests worldwide and he works now
in Brussels as a free lance artist. He draws for local papers
and satirical publications or pamphlets in Belgium.
