Art at Lunch: Abject Pop in Chicago
April 18, 2012
Comment on Facebook
Ray Yoshida (1930-2009) had a profound effect on two generations of artists in and beyond Chicago. His dazzling comics-inspired imagery and his eclectic taste as a collector provided inspiration for artists ranging from Jim Nutt to Chris Ware. A visionary teacher, Yoshida put his ideas into practice through a series of groundbreaking collages he started in 1968 called “comic book specimens.” PAFA recently received a major gift from the Yoshida estate and PAFA's Senior Curator, Robert Cozzolino, will put the work in context by describing the distinctive character of Pop in Chicago art.
