Art Spiegelman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel Maus is a landmark in Holocaust thinking and a breakthrough in serious comics art—but his accomplishments are more remarkable and eclectic. ART SPIEGELMAN: DISASTER IS MY MUSE traces his early work in the 1960s as co-creator of the Wacky Packages trading cards; his co-founding of the underground comics magazines Arcade (with Bill Griffith) and Raw (with his wife Françoise Mouly); In the Shadow of No Towers, his response to 9/11, inspired by witnessing the attacks from his home in lower Manhattan; his controversial covers for The New Yorker (1993–2003) that prompted the NYPD to picket the magazine’s offices; and his public response to a Tennessee school board’s recent banning of Maus. Spiegelman proves to be an eloquent guide through his provocative work, alongside his contemporaries (Robert Crumb, Gary Panter) and younger cartoonists (Joe Sacco, Jerry Craft, Molly Crabapple) inspired by Spiegelman’s unflinching confrontation with personally traumatic themes.
