Description:
Visit the new student-curated exhibition "Jews and American Comics: The New Generations." Based on work done by students in Professor Paul Buhles course, Jewish Americans: Film and Comics, the exhibition presents images of recent comic book art. It considers the ways the artists address social issues violence, prejudice, the threat of war, environmental devastation, and media manipulation as well as issues of individual and collective identity and Jewish history. Artists in this show include Art Spiegelman, Miriam Katin, Eric Drooker, Sharon Rudahl, and James Sturm.
Free and open to the public.
Co-sponsored by the Creative Arts Council, the John Nicholas Brown Center for Public Humanities and Cultural Heritage, and the Department of Visual Arts.
