  • COMIC Books: RE-EVALUATING HIGI-4 and LOW Using Narrative in Art Has a Long History
    Kenny McBroom AR 695 Independent Study Fall2008 COMIC BooKS: RE-EVALUATING HIGI-4 AND LOW Using narrative in art has a long history. Using comic related narrative imagery in art is certainly nothing new as well. In the last century, comic strips and books have become an almost everyday element in our lives. Furthermore, hundreds ofbooks, if not more, have been written arguing the importance of comics. A mere few condensed points will be discussed in this paper regarding some interesting features of comics, as well as their potential as objects of high art. A few examples each of standout contemporary comics (they've come a long way from Mutt and Jeff) will be provided. Are- interpretation of the traditional high art definition will be offered. An examination into comics' unique formal and conceptual potential will be gone over, as well as a look at comics' art historical roots. Finally, some examples of comics' incorporation into both the gallery space and academia will be given. There are numerous perspectives one needs to take into account when considering comics as high art. So rather than just picking a couple, and exploring them for pages and pages, included in this paper are several tiny samplings of various points of view on the subject. The comic book, as we know it, originated in 1833 with The Adventures of Obadiah Oldbuck, and in 1897 with The Yellow Kid from McFadden's Flats. The Yellow Kid himself is considered by most comic scholars to be the first comic character (fig.1 ). 1 The definition of a comic character is an individual whose successful recurring appearances led it to a certain degree of popular notoriety.

    Report to the U.S. Congress for the Year Ending December 31, 2008 Created by the U.S. Congress to Preserve America’s Film Heritage Created by the U.S. Congress to Preserve America’s Film Heritage April 10, 2009 Dr. James H. Billington The Librarian of Congress Washington, D.C. 20540-1000 Dear Dr. Billington: In accordance with The Library of Congress Sound Recording and Film Preservation Programs Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-336), I submit to the U.S. Congress the 2008 Report of the National Film Preservation Foundation. We present this Report with renewed purpose and responsibility. The NFPF awarded our first preservation grants in 1998, fueled by contributions from the entertainment industry. Since then, federal funding from the Library of Congress has redrawn the playing field and enabled 187 archives, libraries, and museums across 46 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico to save historically significant films and share them with the public. These efforts have rescued 1,420 works that might otherwise have been lost—newsreels, documentaries, silent-era features, avant-garde films, home movies, industrials, and independent works. Films preserved through the NFPF are now used widely in education and reach audiences everywhere through exhibition, television, video, and the Internet. The renewal of our federal legislation, passed unanimously by both houses of Congress in 2008, celebrates these formative steps but also recognizes that there is still much to do. With the Library’s continued support, we will strengthen efforts in the months ahead and press in new directions to advance film preservation and broaden access.

  • A Brief on Comics and Sequential Art- by R
    A Brief on Comics and Sequential Art- By R. Perry. Whether called comic strips, comic books, comix, graphic novels, funnies, or whatever other name they go by, the history of sequential art is as long as written word, longer in fact. Yet nowadays comics, comics as art and as literature, have been relegated to the realm of childish pursuit, to be left behind with the onset of puberty. Fortunately, some of this erroneous attitude towards one of man’s most unique and oldest forms of communication has begun to soften, in some cases to the point that comic books have begun to be studied in detail and analyzed in our universities, taking their rightful place alongside the great literature of our day. But in order to fully appreciate where Sequential Art is, it is important to understand a bit about where it’s been. Pt1. Definitions. To begin, we should settle on a couple of definitions. Comics or comic books refers to longer multi page publications such as Batman, while comic strips is a reference to the funnies in your newspaper. We will also often use the nomenclature of sequential art, which by our definition is a series of at least two images that tell a tale. To be a little more specific, what this means is a series of at least two images arranged next to each other in space and time to tell a story. This can refer to any of a number of different art forms, be it issues of Superman, the daily antics of Calvin & Hobbes, or the Tortures of Saint Erasmus, an illustrated guide to torture from the mid 15th century.

  • Mutt and Jeff in on Strike
    Mutt and Jeff: On Strike (1920) PRODUCTION COMPANY: Bud Fisher Films Corporation, distributed by the Fox Film Corporation. PRODUCER: Bud Fisher. DIRECTOR/WRITER: Charles Bowers (?). RUNNING TIME: 7 minutes. On Strike is one of more than 300 animated “half-reelers” that ran from 1913 to 1926 and featured the popular comic strip characters Mutt and Jeff. Harry Conway “Bud” Fisher’s strip, already more than ten years old when this film was produced, first appeared as A. Mutt in the San Francisco Chronicle on November 15, 1907. Though it was not the first daily comic strip to feature an ongoing story line, Fisher’s was by far the most successful, and he is widely credited with popularizing the form. A. Mutt featured Augustus Mutt, a compulsive gambler who bet on horse races every week. On March 27, 1908, Jeffries (“Jeff”) was introduced and appeared intermittently until 1910, when he became a permanent fixture. In 1916, the comic strip was officially renamed Mutt and Jeff, though the duo was already well known (and well merchandised) by that time. The Mutt and Jeff comic strip continued long past Fisher’s death in 1954, finishing its run in 1982. The notoriety of Mutt and Jeff, while largely due to the popularity of the daily comic, extended beyond the newspaper pages. Fisher published collections of his strips in book form, and as early as 1910, the characters were featured in live musical theater performances and accompanying sheet music. In 1913, Nestor Films produced a number of live-action Mutt and Jeff “one-reelers,” which were distributed by Pathé Frères.

CHRIS WARE‘S JIMMY CORRIGAN: HONING THE HYBRIDITY OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL by DALLAS J. DYCUS, JR. Under the Direction of Michael Galchinsky ABSTRACT The genre of comics has had a tumultuous career throughout the twentieth century: it has careened from wildly popular to being perceived as the source of society‘s ills. Despite having been relegated to the lowest rung of the artistic ladder for the better part of the twentieth century, comics has been gaining in quality and respectability over the last couple of decades. My introductory chapter provides a broad, basic introduction to the genre of comics––its historical development, its different forms, and a survey of comics criticism over the last thirty years. In chapter two I clarify the nature of comics by comparing it to literature, film, and pictorial art, thereby highlighting its hybrid nature. It has elements in common with all of these, and yet it is a distinct genre.
