Comics are everywhere these days. Long derided as neither literature nor art, they are increasingly considered a unique, sophisticated mode of communication and expression, employing complex juxtapositions of words and images. Artists have been producing remarkable work in a multiplicity of styles and formats, while lavish reprints have introduced readers to some of the finest works in the medium’s history. Drawing primarily from the Cantor’s collection of original comic art and 19th-century satirical prints, this exhibition explores topics such as the panel, sequence, page, and story, as well as comics’ treatment of time, rhythm, and tempo.
