Bruno Catalano's “Les Voyageurs”
“Bruno Catalano is a French artist whose sculptures are
often missing pieces. The human figures are travelers heading towards
unknown destination, lacking important pieces but still standing. (…)
Mr. Catalano was born in Morocco and a lifetime as a sailor inspired him
to make these intriguing sculptural works.”

Marvel at a Museum Dedicated to One of Comics' Greatest Artists
JACK KIRBY MUSEUM
Captain America, the Hulk, Fantastic Four... If you read superhero comics,
you've probably liked a character created or co-created by Jack Kirby. He made the
battles of superheroes like Thor feel larger than life but he also grew up fighting
in the streets of New York City's gritty Lower East Side neighborhood. And he
made an awesome, rarely-seen comic about it.
Last week, a pop-up museum honoring Kirby showed off some of
the legendary artist's work just a few blocks away from where he grew up. Being
a big
Kirby fan, I went over to the Kirby Pop-Up Museum to see the blown-up
artwork on display and talk to organizer Randolph Hoppe about Kirby's life.
