The Cartoon Art Museum will begin exhibiting “Black and White and Read All Over: Comics of the New Millennium” starting in December. The exhibit is a showcase featuring nine comic strips introduced between the years 2000 and 2010. From talking animals to beleaguered cartoonists, childhood fears to childhood nightmares, the perils of adulthood to the trials of arrested development, the nonsensical to the political (which often goes right back around to nonsensical), the modern comic strip page really does include something for everyone.
Comics featured in the line up:
La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz
Ollie and Quentin by Piers Baker
Arctic Circle by Alex Hallatt
The Knight Life by Keith Knight
Dustin by Jeff Parker & Steve Kelley
Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis
Tina’s Groove by Rina Piccolo
Lio by Mark Tatulli
Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson
Exhibit runs December 17, 2011 – May 6, 2012
I wish I could be in San Fran to see it!
