The work of my father, Basil Wolverton, will be exhibited at the Barbara Gladstone Gallery, 515 W. 24th St. in New York City. The exhibition of more than 150 pieces opens Friday night, June 19th and runs through August 14th. This is perhaps only the second time the work of a comic artist has been exhibited at a major fine art gallery — and represents a significant move toward the general recognition of classic comic art as fine art. But there is more than comic art in the exhibition. Most of Wolverton’s apocalyptic illustrations will be part of the show — as well as scores of other mind-bending Wolverton pieces from the rich collection of Glenn Bray. The show is curated by legendary artist Cameron Jamie. If you are in New York — stop in and get an eyeful. Heck — it’s even worth a trip there!
