Clowes Close Up


The Oakland Museum of California shines a spotlight on the work of Dan Clowes. The renowned graphic novelist’s comics were adapted for the screen in Ghost World (2001) and Art School Confidential (2006), both directed by Terry Zwigoff. “Modern Cartoonist: The Art of Daniel Clowes” continues through August 12, with a special panel discussion on July 27 featuring Clowes and fellow comic artist Chris Ware.
