Worlds Apart: Comix+Fantasy in Prints

PR_COMIXcomposite

April 4 – May 30, 2019.

First Friday April 5, 6-9pm

This invitational show presents the link between graphic cartooning, tattoo design, classic comics, manga, anime, detailed grotesque ornamentation and fantasy drawing styles that are sources for expression and distillation by contemporary print artists today.    This popular “low art world” crosses generations and genres, usually outside the fine art world, and artists respond with irony, visual puns, horror vacui compositions, and technical bravura.  This exhibition celebrates the spirit of imagination and skepticism, creative play, and topical messages.   Works in print media, book forms and drawing will be included.

Artists include:

Brett Colley, Michigan

DB Dowd, Missouri

Victoria Goro-Rapaport, Nebraska

Bob Hall, Nebraska

Liz Hermanson, Texas

Darren Houser, Minnesota

Trishelle Jeffery, Utah

Brian Johnson, Texas

Phoebe Little, Nebraska

Joe Lupo, West Virginia

Josh Norton, Minnesota

Sage Perrott, Tennessee

Jordan Scribner, Nebraska

Ryan Standfest, Michigan
