This paper deals with graph cohomology classes. Let us recall that graph complexes were introduced by Kontsevich as a tool to compute the cohomology of infinite dimensional Lie algebras. Two constructions were proposed: the ``direct one'' that is now well understood and the ``dual one''. In this paper, the authors use this dual construction to produce graph classes from a graded Frobenius algebra. This work is based on the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. After recalling the relevant facts and notions, the authors prove the main theorem. Finally, they prove the equivalence of the BV-formulation of the dual construction and the original combinatorial version.
