Description:
|
One of the world’s most influential and acclaimed cartoon artists, Art Spiegelman is also one of the 2010–11 Wexner Center Residency Award recipients in media arts.
In this special presentation, he'll discuss his past career and future projects. Spiegelman, along with figures such as Robert Crumb and Bill Griffith, was one of the key artists of the American underground comics movement in the 1960s and 1970s. Maus: A Survivor’s Tale (1986, 1991), Spiegelman's best-known project, reimagines his father's memories of the Holocaust as a story of cats and mice and is widely regarded as one of the most important graphic novels of all-time. A tireless advocate for cartoon art, he is a coeditor along with Françoise Mouly, his wife, of the series Little Lit (2000–2003) and The Toon Treasury of Classic Children's Comics (2009). He also created the graphic memoir In the Shadow of No Towers (2004), along with numerous other works.
