Alternative Girlhood:
Diaristic Indulgence and Contemporary Female Artists
Assistant Professor Alisia Chase curates this exhibition, which features culturally
significant and compelling work by contemporary female creators of comics,
graphic novels and "zines." The "diaristic indulgence"
and "persistence of feelings" in their art underscores an alternative
version of girlhood and feminity. Their graphic world, often intentionally
crude, presents us with a reality that most of society wishes to ignore.
Opening reception: Tuesday, January 24th at 4:00pm
