“My work doesn’t belong in galleries, it belongs in campus libraries”

Send to Kindle

This made me so happy: Some of the cartoons I did for Babson College, now hanging proudly in their library [Thanks to John Capecelatro for sending in the photo!].

As I’ve said many times before, my work doesn’t belong in galleries, it belongs in offices. But hey, a campus library is similar enough. Rock on.

I’m sorry your work ended up in the library but at least it’s in a public place and not in the back storage room of the library. I was referred to your site and I am so inspired by it! I’m starting out on my own artistic career and I’m grappling with the idea that my work is not suitable for galleries. I hope to flaunt that fact soon enough.
