Details
The SCW
has arranged for a guided tour of the latest exhibit at the Frye Art Museum
R. Crumb, A Pioneer of Underground "Comix"
R. Crumb, pioneer of underground "comix" and founder of Zap Comix, has been key to the dramatic transformation of comic books into an adult literary form. Cultural critic and lifelong student of human nature, Crumb tackles in his art issues and obsessions that bubble beneath society's surface: sex, drugs, race, violence, and government repression. His comics are populated by a cast of characters based on American archeteypes – Flakey Foont, Angelfood, McSpade, Devil Girl, Mr. Natural, Fritz the Cat, and even a cartoon version of Crumb himself – who testify to the complexities of the human condition and to the spiritual and social searches we all undertake.

The museum is open till 5pm.
