See Art in 2016! While The Drawing Center is closed through January 22 to prep our upcoming exhibitions by Louise Despont and Jennifer Bartlett, here is one of the terrific ongoing exhibitions taking place in New York City. “Superheroes in Gotham” at New York Historical Society Museum and Library At 170 Central Park West through February 21, 2016 (Tuesday-Thursday, 10am-6pm | Friday, 10am-8pm (today, New Year's Day too) | Saturday 10am-6pm | Sunday 11am-5pm) “Superheroes in Gotham” tells the story of the birth of comic book superheroes in New York City; the leap of comic book superheroes from the page into radio, television, and film; the role of fandom, including the yearly mega event known as New York Comic Con; and the ways in which comic book superheroes, created in the late 1930s through the 1960s, have inspired and influenced the work of contemporary comic book artists, cartoonists, and painters in New York City.” #SeeArt #NewYorkHistoricalSociety nyhistory #Superheroes #comics
