Komikon - January/February 2013

Brightening up the cold days of January, Museo’s iconic winter show “Komikon” seeks to explore the impact comic books, cartoons, graphic novels and various forms of computerized animation have had on art.  
Be prepared to see superheros never before revealed.  Creatures, both known and unknown, will festoon the gallery walls.  Is there a dark side to Mickey Mouse, will the Queen of Hearts prevail over Alice,  can White Out Man erase past mistakes? 
Don your costume and head down to Museo on January 19th for the opening reception.  Expect surprises and come ready for fun from 5 to 7 PM. This opening will replace the February 2 usual opening date.
The gallery will be closed January 1 through the 18th to prepare for this exciting show.

       Jerry speaking on the Chazen's collection.

I knew I was in the right place when I opened the drawer
of one of the Chazen's art pieces and discovered a dehydrated cat.
(I received one in the mail just like it from a patron
who thought I might like to use it for one of my art pieces.)

Presentation and Dialog: Jerry’s Journey

Saturday, June 16, 2:00-4:00 p.m. UW Arboretum McKay Visitor Center Auditorium 1207 Seminole Highway, Madison, Wisconsin

Jerry is an artist who found the courage to base his life on following the truth of his creative spirit. Through a cycle of death and rebirth of his creative vision, Jerry has been initiated into a place of mystery that is reflected in his artwork and his life, touching the vast complexities of the collective unconscious. His stories and insights deeply move and inform. A donation of $10-$25 is requested.
