Up-and-coming _New Yorker_ cartoonist “Amy Hwang”:http://www.amyhwang.com/Amy_Hwang.html has created a “review in pictures”:http://urbanomnibus.net/2010/04/addams-big-apple-a-review-in-cartoon/ of an “exhibition”:http://www.mcny.org/exhibitions/current/charles-addams-new-york.html in the Museum of the City of New York that features the work of the legendary Charles Addams.
Hwang’s illustrated “Addams’s Big Apple” reveals not only her fascination with Addams’ genius, artistic methods, and relationship with the urban landscape, but also Hwang’s considerable talents.
Hwang, who is not only a cartoonist but also an architect, transforms her visit into an artistic diary that showcases her own irreverent humor as well as Addams’ use of the city in his cartoons (Addams used accurate architectural elements in his work).
The Addams exhibition will run until June 8, 2010. Click on the image above to enlarge it!
