Art Spiegelman Is Not Arrogant
That's something the comic artist kept stressing to me when we spoke by phone about a week ago. But Spiegelman---best known for his two-volume graphic novel about his father's experiences during the Holocaust, Maus---in't about to deny his influence, either. In the Q&A below, he discusses his recently reissued 1978 collection Breakdowns (reviewed in this week's City Paper), the grammar of comic art, the legacy of his work, and more.
Spiegelman will discuss Breakdowns on Friday, Nov. 7, at 7 p.m. at Politics and Prose.
