SUMMARY:2016 FALL | NW Alternative Comics Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Museum of Art/WSU announces a Northwest Alternative Comics Exhibition\, Sep. 26–Dec. 17. AN OPENING RECEPTION WILL BE HELD 5-7 PM THURSDAY\, OCTOBER 6\, IN THE MUSEUM OF ART GALLERY. Admission to the museum is free. \nABOUT | The Northwest is seen by many as the birthplace of alternative comics\, a genre which blended the legacy of Bay-Area “underground comix” with a DIY punk-ethos\, while in step with a burgeoning independent music scene. Coalescing around The Evergreen State College in the early 1980s\, gifted cartoonists Matt Groening\, Lynda Barry\, and Charles Burns published their comic strips in small alternative weeklies\, helping to lay the foundation for the cultural phenomenon that would develop around Seattle in the 1990s. Originally underground and bohemian-based\, today the regional comic scene is bigger and more active than ever before. \nNorthwest Alternative Comics will feature a select sampling of emerging and highly-recognized artists and illustrators who make up the alternative comics genre of our region. With an emphasis on individuals who are willing to reinvent the way we look at and experience the art of comics and graphic arts\, our exhibition offers an alternative to mainstream superhero comics by highlighting diverse narratives and new visual formats. The exhibition includes artists Peter Bagge\, Paul Chadwick\, Max Clotfelter\, Taylor Dow\, Ellen Forney\, Eroyn Franklin\, David Lasky\, Mita Mahato\, Tom Van Deusen and Jim Woodring.  Special thanks to exhibit advisors Larry Reid of Fantagraphics Books and Casey Bruce of Danger Room Comics. \nCOUGAR COMIX JAM:  Thurs\, 9/22\, 5-10pm\, Rico’s Pub\, Downtown Pullman\nLearn to make comic zines with Tom and Max.
