Art Spiegelman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel Maus is a landmark in the reading of the Holocaust and a breakthrough in serious comic art—but his full achievements are more remarkable and eclectic. ART SPIEGELMAN: DISASTER IS MY MUSE traces his beginnings in the 1960s as co-creator of the Wacky Packages trading card game; his co-founding of the underground comics magazines Arcade (with Bill Griffith) and Raw (with his wife, Françoise Mouly); In the Shadow of No Towers, his response to 9/11 inspired by witnessing the attacks from his home in lower Manhattan; his controversial covers for The New Yorker (1993-2003), which prompted the New York City police to raid the magazine’s office; and his public response to Maus’ recent ban from a Tennessee school board. Spiegelman proves to be an eloquent leader in his provocative work, alongside contemporaries (Robert Crumb, Gary Panter) and younger cartoonists (Joe Sacco, Jerry Kraft, Molly Krabappel) inspired by Spiegelman’s unwavering confrontation with personally traumatic themes.
