Queens, N.Y. -
St. John's University presents "Seriatim", an exhibition of
sequential work done by six nationally recognized graphic artists,
January 4-February 10 at the
Dr. Geoffrey Yeh Art
Gallery in Sun Yat Sen Hall on the Queens campus.
With images drawn from the comic page, the print studio, and
Hollywood cinema, the show exhibits a wide range of narrative
sequential art that is as intimate as the studio print. From
imagery created for graphic novels and ranging to mass culture with
storyboards culled from today's film industry, the seriatim exhibit
touches on a broad range of expressive styles by leaders in these
fields.
Featured in this exhibit is Brick Mason, storyboard artist for
over 60 films including A Beautiful Mind and The Sixth
Sense. Graphic novelist David Klein will show work from his
recently completed novel about the Golem, and Peter Kuper will
exhibit a cross-section of his graphic works spanning multiple
projects. Kuper is a gold medal winner in the sequential art from
the Society of Illustrators and illustrates the popular Spy vs. Spy
for Mad Magazine.
From the world of strip comics is Martin Kozlowski, whose art
has parodied figures great and small for the Earth Times
and Fortune Magazine. From the printmaking studio,
personal sequential etchings by William Ronalds will also be
featured. Ronalds is a retired professor from St. John's University
whose prints have been exhibited internationally.
The Seriatim exhibit is also proud to include illustrator David
Gothard's "Skells" and other sculptural works. Gothard is an award
winning illustrator featured on many of today's national editorial
pages.
