Barron Storey's "Life After Black" Opens This Friday
Jun 10, 2009    posted by: Wade


Through good times and bad times illustrator, graphic novelist, and noted educator Barron Storey has recorded his life with the illustrations in his journals.  By capturing subtleties in pictures and illustrating the impossible to illustrate, his thoughts and experiences come to life on these magnificent pages.  The journals are an example and source for anyone interested in the delicate art of making pictures communicate and the illustrator's process.

Beginning in 1975, Storey's journals have explored such ominous themes as political corruption, repression, sexual aggression and civil conflict.  He considers his journals to be "a daily recording of happenings" and "the eternal flow from a particular point of view.  Things seen, things thought, things felt....experience captured."  Since then, the artist's work has appeared in TIME, National Geographic, The Saturday Review and is permanently on display at the National Air and Space Museum, The American Museum of Natural History, and the National Portrait Gallery.
