My Hero! Contemporary Art & Superhero Action

My Hero! Contemporary Art & Superhero Action

Edward E. and Jane B. Ford Gallery
Opening February 9, 2019 through May 5, 2019

Experience the escapades of iconic superheroes with this pumped-up collection of international artworks in a variety of media. As contemporary idols, superheroes provide a rich source of inspiration for artists around the world. My Hero! celebrates and re-envisions the possibilities that exist when you have a magic cape, lasso, or some superhuman power that changes everything.
