Map to MoCCA
MoCCA’s “Things That Go Bump…”
is an all-ages exploration of the ways iconic monsters have
been represented in artwork from comics, cartoons and animation.
It is a piercing gaze into the ways in which the human experience
has been reflected in the malformed shapes of traditional monster
archetypes. There will be artwork featuring zombies, demons,
vampires, ghosts, and witches on display. Our dear old comrades: Frankenstein’s
Monster and Dracula are slated to appear. Friendly Ghosts and
crime-solving teenagers! Famous killers, demons, and werewolves! Steel yourself
for images that will delight, terrify, amuse, and enlighten.
The exhibit has been made possible through a grant from the
Independence Community Foundation, with additional support from Carroll Musical
Instrument Rentals and Weird Tales Magazine.
The opening reception will be held Thursday, Sept. 13 at 7pm.
Admission to the reception is $10. The exhibit will be on
display until January 28, 2008.
