Graphic Details: Confessional Comics by Jewish Women
June 7 - September 2, 2012
Opening Reception
Thursday, June 7
6:00 - 8:00 pm
Remarks at 7:00 pm by:
Michael Kaminer & Sara Lightman, co-curators
Zachary Levine, Yeshiva University Museum Curator
Spotlighting the raw, revealing voices of Jewish women and their singular presence in graphic storytelling, the exhibition illuminates the intersection of experiences that make these diaristic comics so compelling. Funny, outrageous, poignant and embarrassingly intimate all at once, the works in "Graphic Details" reflect the artists' individual journeys, refracted through a distinctively Jewish lens in a pop-culture art form. Some bare their bodies. Some expose their psyches. All are fearless about sex, romance, politics, body functions, experiences, emotions and desires.
