A flat panel display device is presented. The device includes at least one display module in the form of a matrix of pixels formed by active media enclosed between two sets of conductors. The display module has a front side by which it is to be exposed to viewers and an opposite back side where an electronic control circuit is located, and comprises two sets of electrical conductors extending along two intersecting axes respectively to define a two-dimensional array of junctions forming said pixels, each of the conductors of at least one set of conductors being bent to extend from the front side to the opposite back side of the display module.
