The Suzanne H. Arnold Gallery opened with a new exhibit on Friday, Aug. 31, which features a vintage collection of American comic art through a variety of generations.<\/p>\n

The exhibit, \u201cComics Unstripped\u201d was curated by Dr. Barbara McNulty, gallery director, as well as Michael Pittari, an art and visual culture professor. Through a course offered the previous semester, eight students were able to contribute to the formation through planning and research. President Dr. Lewis Thayne and wife Dorothy Thayne hosted the exhibit\u2019s official opening ceremony on Friday, Sept. 14.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe exhibit is an evolution of comics and represents a form of newspaper art,\u201d Mike Keiper, a junior art and music major and gallery student worker, said.<\/p>\n

Many popular running comics are featured throughout the exhibit, such as Spider-Man, The Bungle Family, Ziggy and more. On display are black and white and color comics that date back to 1890 through present time. Over 20 featured comics the collaboration illustrates history and visual communication.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is distinct and unique and very life-like,\u201d Keiper said. \u201cThere are a lot of artistic styles condensed into this exhibit.\u201d<\/p>\n

On opening night, all attendees were encouraged to dress up in costume of their favorite comic character. The exhibit will be available for tours and walk-ins through Sunday, Oct. 21.<\/p>\n

Other events help to promote \u201cComics Unstripped\u201d through the upcoming weeks, such as discussions, lectures and workshops.
