SEQUENTIAL: An Art Show Celebrating Visual Storytelling
From the cave walls of Lascaux to the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt, pictorial storytelling is one of humanity’s oldest artforms, and sequential art in the 21st century has reached a visual and linguistic high point in the quality of the art and narratives. “Sequential” seeks to celebrate the beauty and impact of comics and graphic novels by highlighting original works of art inspired by heroes, villains, and everyday people whose stories have been shared on the page.
VARIANTS
One of the strongest draws, and often the impetus for picking up a comic for the first time is the artwork on the cover. “Variants” takes a clean slate and puts it in the hands of a diverse group of artists with a wide range of styles. See how they interpret their favorite characters and create action that leaps off the page, enticing you to pick up your next (or first) comic book.
