POPEYE Hy Eisman POPEYE Hy Eisman Opening Reception: Friday, October 9, 2015: 6-8 pm On View: October 2- October 31, 2015 Van Der Plas Gallery is pleased to announce “Popeye”, the first exhibition in history to display the original works of Popeye by the iconoclast Hy Eisman. The show will feature his original comic strip illustrations from the years 2008 to 2012. About the Artist: Hy Eisman was born March 27, 1927, in Paterson, N.J. He began his career when he created a comic strip for his high school newspaper. After a brief stint in the military, Eisman worked as ghost artist for the popular Kerry Drake comic strip. He soon turned his pen to the comic-book industry, drawing for various publishers of such titles as Nancy, The Munsters, Tom and Jerry and Little Lulu. Eisman's career as a cartoonist took off in 1967, when he started to draw Little Iodine. He really brought the adventures of the bratty, pony-tailed Iodine to life. He left that strip in 1986 to chronicle the adventures of those two more-famous brats, The Katzenjammer Kids, the world's oldest continuing comic strip. In 1994, Eisman added another comic legend to his repertoire when he started drawing the Sunday Popeye strip, which stars Popeye, the salty sailor man, and his crew of lovable co-stars Olive Oyl, Swee' Pea, Wimpy and Bluto who were created by E.C. Segar for his comic strip Thimble Theatre in 1919. Popeye made his first appearance in 1929. He was an instant sensation who would go on to star in hundreds of cartoons, comic books, his own radio show and even a live-action feature film starring Robin Williams. King Features Syndicate distributes Popeye to newspapers worldwide. Eisman received the Comic Book Humor Award from the National Cartoonists Society in 1975 and 1984. (Courtesy of King Features) Vincent Zambrano, filmmaker/multimedia artist along with co-director/artist Marco Cutrone are currently working on a documentary on the life and works of Hy Eisman. .

  • The Gender Fluidity of Krazy Kat, Gabrielle
    The Gender Fluidity of Krazy Kat By Gabrielle Bellot January 19, 2017 “Krazy Kat,” George Herriman’s exuberant and idiosyncratic newspaper comic, was never broadly popular. From the beginning, though, it found fans among writers and artists. P. G. Wodehouse compared it favorably to Wagner’s “Parsifal”; Jack Kerouac later said it influenced the Beats. The strip ran from 1913 until 1944, the year that Herriman died. It is set in a dreamlike place called Coconino County, where a black cat named Krazy loves a white mouse named Ignatz, who throws bricks at Krazy’s head. Krazy interprets the bricks as “love letters.” Meanwhile, a police-officer dog, Offisa Pup, tries to protect Krazy, with whom he is smitten. The structure of the strip was built on reversals: a cat loves a mouse, a dog protects a feline, and, at a time when anti-miscegenation laws held sway in most of the United States, a black animal yearns for a white one. That last detail took on additional resonance, in 1971, when Arthur Asa Berger published a story about Herriman’s birth certificate. The certificate described Herriman’s race as “colored,” Berger revealed, to the astonishment of many readers (Ralph Ellison among them). Herriman was born in New Orleans, in 1880, to a mixed-race family; his great-grandfather, Stephen Herriman, was a white New Yorker who had children with a “free woman of color,” Justine Olivier, in what was then a common social arrangement in New Orleans called plaçage. George Herriman was one of the class of Louisianans known as blanc fo’cé_:_ Creoles who actively tried to pass as white.

  • How the Spinach, Popeye and Iron Decimal Point Error Myth Was Finally
    Published by HealthWatch www.healthwatch-uk.org How the spinach, Popeye and iron decimal point error myth was finally bust CIBeT? (Can It Be True?) was the name coined by past HealthWatch chairman Professor John Garrow for an occasional series in this newsletter, in which an expert scrutinised popular myths. Who better to revive it, than supermythbuster Mike Sutton, who reveals the history of the legend of why spinach made Popeye so strong—and why Popeye was right all along, but not in the way we thought ... NE OF THE MOST complex and convoluted myths in the world of nutrition is the one called, for want of a less complex name, the ‘Spinach, Popeye and Iron Decimal Point Error Myth’. I discovered that the myth was started by the nutrition expert, Professor Arnold Bender (the late father of HealthWatch Secretary David Bender) in his inaugural lecture at the UOniversity of London in 1972. 1 The myth, once begun, was long popularised and eventually was veracious. came to be attributed to Professor Terence Hamblin, after he wrote The truth behind Bender’s and Hamblin’s decimal error knowl - in the British Medical Journal 2 in 1981: edge gap filling myth for why people think spinach is a good source “A statue of Popeye in Crystal City, Texas, commemorates the of iron when it isn’t, is that spinach contains no more iron than fact that singlehandedly he raised the consumption of Spinach by many other vegetables, such as lettuce for example. The fact of the 33%. America was ‘strong to the finish ‘cos they ate their spinach’ matter is that spinach is not a good source of nutritional iron, and duly defeated the Hun.

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.
