LIFE AND LAUGHS
HEB : A RETROSPECTIVE
15 JULY - 21 AUGUST 2016
Pinnacles Gallery
HEB is a major retrospective of the works of acclaimed political cartoonist Bob Hebden. A Townsville local, HEB created over 4,000 cartoons during his lifetime, many of which were published in the Townsville Advertiser, and Townsville Sun for a period spanning four decades. HEB’s cartoons regularly delighted readers (and occasionally sparked controversy), as he turned his undoubted talent as a draughtsman and acerbic humour to local and national issues and events, identities and sporting teams. This exhibition is made possible thanks to the generosity of HEB’s family, who have kindly loaned his original illustrations and paintings
