- An Evening with Daniel Clowes
Daniel Clowes shares his fascinating career as a cartoonist, illustrator, and screenwriter in this talk hosted by the Wexner Center and Cartoon Crossroads Columbus.
Clowes’s career spans nearly four decades, from his early work in Eightball to his newly released graphic novel, Monica-his first new work in seven years. One of the most decorated cartoonists of his generation, Clowes is a PEN American Literary Award Winner, and he has received numerous Harvey, Eisner, and Ignatz awards. Joining Clowes on stage is noted comics scholar and writer Irene Velentzas.
Clowes was the subject of the exhibition Modern Cartoonist: The Art of Daniel Clowes, which traveled to the Wexner Center in 2014. In partnership with the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, the Wex also staged Eye of the Cartoonist (2014), an exhibition curated by Clowes featuring cartoon work that was influential to him.
Clowes’s creativity is not limited to comics. He has written scripts for films adapted from his comics: Ghost World (2001), Art School Confidential (2006), and Wilson (2017). He has also created artwork for numerous album covers (including the 10 inch EP Tapeworm Blues by Columbus band the New Bomb Turks), covers for the Criterion Collection, and much more. His books have been translated into more that 20 languages around the world.

I found Monica at my local library in France. I didn't know this author but got drawn to the gorgeous art. That was a really good read! A bit enigmatic :)
This feels like if Dan Clowes was in a job interview.
Especially the part when he opens up about the deaths of his family. Just like a job interview! ;)
I understand what the original poster meant, I think the interviewer was nervous and trying to have a more academic discussion where Dan was more laid back. She was also constantly checking her notes and making pointless annoying agreement sounds while he was talking. A little cringey but yea I'd probably be nervous to interview Dan as well so no judgement here. @@ScottyC1972
Dan Clowes is a Genius💥
❤ from New Zealand 🇳🇿
So happy you all recorded these. I was bummed that I missed this talk
“monica” is really great - my favorite since the end of “eightball”
Thank you for taping this.
Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful interview ❤️
If you are cynical don't use emojis
Is it me, or did anyone else feel like the person conducting the interview doesn’t read comics?
Just you
Definitely - totally unwatchable
Yeah, I had a hard time with it too. I'm sure she was doing her best, but this interview wasn't for me. Huge Clowes fan, prefer the Cartoonist Kayfabe interview style and experience. @jamesfain1236 @@badteethtv
def not.@@jamesfain1236
I love the Ohhh.... OH.... ooohhh....
Daniel Clowes is a living legend!
Why did his style evolve to be Charles Burns? Clowes’s early ‘jaggy’ style was so much better
Because Charles Burns actually makes good comics.
👍
The GOAT!

The interviewer looks like a character Clowes would mock in one of his books
He reminds me of the photorealist painter, Robert Bechtle, who was also from the SF Bay Area.
Most overrated dude in comics. He makes cartoons for spoiled art school nerds who live in expensive, gentrified neighborhoods.
Eightball is inarguably one of the best comics ever.
@@DonTheMoron716 Hahahahahaha. Yeah, if you're one of the spoiled art school kids with bad taste that I mentioned.
@@loganperry5167 You sound like you would start bleeding if you even thought about manual labor.
You are correct at least in my humble opinion...his style can be appealing, but Clowes seems totally condscending. I did like his Dan Pussey character though. Im more excited by an artist named Frank Santoro.
Ok Vision@@RawPowerComics
