Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Art Spiegelman is one of our most influential contemporary artists; it’s hard to overstate his effect on postwar American culture. Maus shaped the fields of literature, history, and art, and has enlivened our collective sense of possibilities for expression. A timeless work in more ways than one, Maus has also often been at the center of debates, as its recent ban by the McMinn County, Tennessee, school board from the district’s English language-arts curriculum demonstrates.
Join the McMullen Museum and Maus Now: Selected Writing editor and Professor of English and Art + Design at Northeastern University Hillary Chute as she discusses Maus and its importance in contemporary American history. To register for this event, please click here.
