How To Read Nancy : The Elements of Comics in Three Easy Panels by Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden @ SOI
2017-12-13 18:30 - 20:30 | Society of Illustrators, 128 E 63rd St, New York, NY, 10065, United States
*This event is not hosted by ASIFA East*

Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden will introduce their new work, a unique meditation on the elements of comics as seen through the molecular deconstruction of the August 8, 1959 daily episode of Ernie Bushmiller’s Nancy. Columbia University comics librarian Karen Green, will chat with Mark and Paul about the genesis of this decade-long project and the author’s quest to isolate the blood, sweat and tears that go into the making of a single comic strip.
How To Read Nancy is part encyclopedia, part history, part biography, part treatise, part humor theory, and part how-to-be-a-cartoonist-in-43-easy-lessons-sorry-folks-no-refunds!
A book singing and reception will follow the presentation.
Tickets
$15 Non-Members | $10 Members | $7 Seniors/students (Undergrad with valid I.D.)
“As one of the members of the first graduating class of How to Read Nancy, I can insure that anyone who wants to understand the mechanics of comics should snap up this thorough (and thoroughly entertaining) extended autopsy of Bushmiller’s genius. I learned more about reading pictures from it than I did from seven years of art school.” – Chris Ware
“A stirring examination of the perfect comic strip and a touching love letter to its creator.” -Dan Clowes
“Anyone who can come away from this book not understanding the complex thought that inhabits handcrafted objects, minimal abstraction, formalism, the hidden value of orchestration or Nancy should just give up on art as inscrutable and imponderable.” -Gary Panter
“How to Read Nancy details the agony involved in making comic strips. It is also a very funny book.” -Ben Katchor
“Professors Karasik and Newgarden want to take you to school. They throw down an inky gauntlet, and then back it up with almost absurd levels of elucidation. Filled with valuable lessons, this book is a tribute to the art of the simple, as exemplified by a master cartoonist.” -David Mazzucchelli
“A crazy idea for a book.” -R. Crumb
Paul Karasik
Paul Karasik is the co-author (with David Mazzucchelli) of the graphic novel City of Glass, adapted from the book by Paul Auster and chosen by The Comics Journal as one of the “100 Best Comics of the 20th Century”. His cartoons appear in the New Yorker. Paul teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design.
Mark Newgarden
Mark Newgarden is a cartoonist and author of the book We All Die Alone, the co-creator of “Garbage Pail Kids”, and the co-author (with Megan Montague Cash) of the award-winning Bow-Wow series of children’s books. Mark teaches at Pratt Institute, Parsons School of Design at The New School, and The School of Visual Arts.
Ernie Bushmiller
Ernie Bushmiller, the creator of Nancy, began working as a copy boy at The New York World at the age of 14. His career spanned the better part of the 20th century, paralleling the rise and fall of the American newspaper comic strip. At its height, Nancy was published daily in more than 900 newspapers worldwide. Bushmiller died in 1982.
Karen Green
Karen Green is Columbia University’s first Curator for Comics and Cartoons. She has served as a judge for the Eisner Awards, been a Pulitzer Prize juror, and is a member of the Society of Illustrators’ board of directors, while also speaking at universities and comics events across the country and around the world. She teaches a summer course at Columbia on “Comics as Literature,” which features the original “How to Read Nancy” essay.

*This event is not hosted by ASIFA East*

Loving Vincent, the world’s first fully oil painted feature film, brings the artwork of Vincent van Gogh to vibrant life in an exploration of the complicated life and controversial death of one of history’s most celebrated artists. More than six years in the making with the help of 125 specially trained painters, Loving Vincent is a uniquely animated film composed of 65,000 painted frames. Drawn from meticulous research and inspired by van Gogh’s masterpieces, subjects, and 800 personal letters, the film captures the world of van Gogh in a cinematic experience like no other. The story begins a year after van Gogh’s death, when Armand Roulin (voice of Douglas Booth), the postmaster’s son, is tasked with delivering Vincent’s last letter, and ends up interviewing all those who knew him in his troubled last days, trying to understand Vincent’s character and what happened. With the voice talent of Saoirse Ronan, Chris O’Dowd, Aidan Turner, Eleanor Tomlinson, Jerome Flynn and Robert Gulaczyk.

Window Horses
2017-11-10 | PA
“An entertaining, educational, and poignant tale about identity and imagination that is filled with stories and poetry.” – Alissa Simon, Variety

“This is not just a visual treat, it’s a rewarding and unexpectedly engrossing piece of female-led storytelling.” – Wendy Ide, Screen International

“We are pleased to announce the animated feature WINDOW HORSES is being released in NY on November 10.

The film is about Chinese/Iranian girl, Rose Ming (voice by Sandra Oh) who is disconnected from her Iranian side of her family but becomes reconnected when travels there to perform at a poetry festival in Shiraz, Iran.

WINDOW HORSES is voiced by Golden Globe winner Sandra Oh (Grey’s Anatomy, SIDEWAYS), Oscar nominated actress Shohreh Aghdashloo (HOUSE OF SAND AND FOG, 24) and Oscar and Golden Globe nominated actress Ellen Page (JUNO, INCEPTION) and is directed by award-winning filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming (THE FRENCH GUY) and

WINDOW HORSES has received much praise for it’s powerful message of love—love of family, poetry, history and culture.

Rosie Ming, a young Canadian poet, is invited to perform at a poetry festival in Shiraz, Iran, but she’d rather go to Paris. She lives at home with her over-protective Chinese grandparents and has never been anywhere by herself. Once in Iran, she finds herself in the company of poets and Persians who tell her stories that force her to confront her past: the Iranian father she assumed abandoned her and the nature of poetry itself. The film is about building bridges between cultural and generational divides. It’s about being curious. Staying open. And finding your own voice through the magic of poetry.
The film’s voice actors include Sandra Oh (Rosie), Ellen Page (Kelly, Rosie’s best friend), Don McKellar (a young poet named Dietmar), Shohreh Aghdashloo (Mehrnaz, a professor at the University of Tehran) and Nancy Kwan (Gloria, Rosie’s overprotective grandmother). More than a dozen animators, including Kevin Langdale, Janet Perlman, Bahram Javaheri and Jody Kramer, worked on the film with Fleming.

“Dirs. Michael Fiore, Erik Sharkey. 2016, 94 mins. DCP. Hired by Walt Disney in 1956, Floyd Norman was the first African-American animator to work for the studio. He has been called the “Forrest Gump” of animation, because he worked on such timeless classics as The Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmatians, and The Jungle Book, as well as the Hanna Barbera cartoons of the 1970s and ‘80s, and Pixar classics like Toy Story 2 and Monsters, Inc. He has continued to work on his own, and at age 82, he plans to “die at the drawing board.” The Hollywood Reporter called this enchanting documentary portrait “an entertaining salute to an unsung figure whose considerable accomplishments well deserve recognition.” In this rare New York appearance, Floyd Norman will talk about his remarkable career in animation. The filmmakers Michael Fiore and Erik Sharkey will also participate in the discussion.”

A slate diverse not only in medium but in subject matter, this eclectic combination of narrative and non-fiction work features stories from all around the world, yet possesses universal qualities and a brilliantly beating heart at its core. Audacious, heart-warming, inspiring, and a little absurdist—get ready for a gorgeously realized emotional roller coaster!”
