Hôpital Public #[nn]

A striking blue-and-white cover sets the tone for this ambitious 2016 French graphic work from Vide Cocagne — a large "H" rendered in intricate schematic detail dominates the upper half, while a crowd of hospital staff and visitors fills the lower portion, immediately conveying the collective human story at its heart. Hôpital Public: Entretiens avec le personnel hospitalier presents itself as a documentary-style project, gathering firsthand accounts from healthcare workers. With Benjamin Adam, Fabien Grolleau, Nicolas La Casinière, Camille Burger, Thierry Bedouet, Thomas Goch, and Gwen Blosse all lending their talents, this is a genuinely collaborative portrait of public hospital life that feels both thoughtful and vital.
