…at the IFC Center in New York at 323 Sixth Avenue at 8 p.m., in the new documentary Gahan Wilson: Born Dead, Still Weird, directed by Steven-Charles Jaffe.
If you love Wilson’s cartoons, covers, and comics for The New Yorker, Playboy, and countless other publications over the decades; or if you’ve always wondered how the cartoons get chosen for The New Yorker; or want to see Stephen Colbert at his most startlingly and movingly sincere, or dig custom skateboard decks, cats, ghosts, monsters, headless fish, or the Sag Harbor jitney; or love hearing celebrity comics gods talking about art, you must attend this screening. (Here’s still more temptation, from John Donohue on the Goings On blog.)
And here’s a serious treat—afterward there’s a Q & A with both Wilson and Jaffe. It’s $15 and, I assure you, very much worth it. Buy tickets here or call the box office at 212-924-7771. See you there!
