Comics, once thought as fare for kids, have matured with the readers who bought and read them as children. Due to the maturity of the subject matter and technologies the medium has changed to branch off into new venues such as graphic novels and “anime”.
Now, movies, television, and animation has been so effected that many of the properties in Comics are now considered as story lines attracting larger audiences. The old comic books have come into their own as an art form beyond the pop culture use by such artists as Roy Lichtenstein in the 60’s to the original artwork becoming highly collectible.
For this exhibition I am looking for entries of comic book, graphic novel, anime, and cartoons of all kinds and genres; art in all type of medium in 2D, sculpture and 3D, digital, and even comic books and graphic novels themselves. Show us your art, your stories, your passion.
