Art Spiegelman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel Maus is a milestone in the fight against the Holocaust and a breakthrough in serious comics art, but his overall achievements are more remarkable and eclectic. ART SPIEGELMAN: DISASTER IS MY MUSE chronicles his early life 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 led the New York Police Department to picket the magazine’s offices; and his public response to the recent banning of Maus by a Tennessee school board. Spiegelman proves an eloquent guide through his provocative work, alongside contemporaries (Robert Crumb, Gary Panter) and younger cartoonists (Joe Sacco, Jerry Craft, Molly Crabapple) inspired by Spiegelman’s unflinching confrontation with personally traumatic themes.
