This weekend I saw a screening at The State Theater of A Savage Art - The Life & Cartoons of Pat Oliphant. For me it hit every note and I left feeling inspired. I had of course seen his work before but now I recognize his influence in so many other artists work. Clever & cutting, dark and inky.. Pat’s work nearly confetti’s across the screen throughout the film. Truly prolific. This man spent 60 years of his life excelling at showing the world it’s shadow. One frame at a time. Check it out if you feel distressed by the current state of the world.. or if you want a fantastically unique history lesson. I also highly recommend this to any artist who has fallen out of practice. asavageart.com
