NeoIntegrity: Comics Edition

March 12 – May 30, 2010

Neointegrity: Comics Edition is an exhibition curated by artist Keith Mayerson that includes over 210 cartoonists, illustrators, animators, and fine artists who work with the spirit and power of iconographic languages.  With creators young and old, historic, currently famous, and soon-to-be-famous, the exhibition is also about the community and legacy of iconographic art and its ability to productively influence the world.  

Originally conceived as a utopic attempt to begin an art movement, the first installment of the NeoIntegrity show was held in the summer of 2007 at Derek Eller Gallery in New York City.  That show incorporated over 180 fine artists, with some cartoonists and illustrators mixed in to breach questions of high and low, rarified and pluralistic.  NeoIntegrity: Comics Edition takes the proposal a step further, showing the relatability of creators harnessing the iconographic vehicle to express themselves and to tell stories for a culture to understand itself in order for it to become a better place.

Dash Shaw
Making The Abyss

Drawings from BodyWorld, Bottomless Belly Button, animations and comic short stories

 
March 12 – May 30, 2010
Artist Talk: Tuesday, May 25, 7pm

The Museum of Comic and Cartoon is pleased to present an exhibition by Dash Shaw, featuring work from BodyWorld, Bottomless Belly Button, The Uncanny Reproduction and The Unclothed Man in the 35h Century.

Shaw's recent works (BodyWorld, The Unclothed Man, and Bottomless Belly Button) connect an interest with the human body, informed by figure drawing, with humorous character-driven narratives.  This show displays his original art for these stories, which are often a combination of traditional crowquill and ink work with gaouche paints, acetate sheets, animation-style backgrounds, colored marker storyboards, and mixed media collages.

Dash Shaw was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in Richmond, Virginia. He graduated with a BFA in Cartooning/Illustration from the School of Visual Arts, Manhattan, in 2005.
