Hello all.
As part of the CO-MIX exhibition, artist Art Spiegelman will
be the featured guest of this year’s HELLER LECTURE.
Senior curator Bruce Grenville will be interviewing
Spiegelman on stage at the Goldcorp Centre for the Arts about his life, career,
and the future of the comics genre.
I have a profile shot of Mr. Spiegelman available for media
publication, as well as images from the exhibition.
Just let me know what you need.
Please feel free and encouraged to include mention of this
special public talk in your coverage, and let me know if I can be of any
assistance.
