LONG BEACH BOULEVARD
LOVELADIES
LETS GET GRAPHIC! Comic books, with their historic humble beginning in the early 20th century, are one of the most important and influential mediums today and have matured into works of art, literature and cultural significance in their own right. As an ingrained part of our cultural lexicon, the characters, conventions, art, and language of comic books are everywhere; from film and entertainment, advertising, illustration and design, to political discourse. Aspects of this powerful medium are the subject of a growing field of scholarship; from the styles of graphic design and imagery, to the written word, to the evolution of the super-hero.
The comic book or graphic novel has provided an intriguing and entertaining look at pop culture and sometimes a critical reflection of each of the societies from which they emerge. This exhibition celebrates the work of 27 artists whose work captures the essence of what is comic. The LBIF wishes to thank Bank of America for their support of this exhibition, and of our art exhibition program. We are truly grateful!
