Art: "Marvelous Color Exhibit" A Black Superhero Showcase

February 16th, 2010 · Posted by PandaReemy

I woke up this morning to a tweet from my homie about a Black Superhero Exhibit in NYC and I had to look into this. After a few minutes of fast-paced google searching, I found a link to the Art Collective; Somos Arte and their official website for the Exhibit HERE.

I’m such a huge fan of comic books, especially when dealing with the  Marvel brand. They have so many interesting Black characters, and it’s funny how true they try to stay to the culture considering most of the writers are not Black. Either way, I can say this looks to be like a really dope Art Exhibit to swing by, especially being Black History Month and all.

There’s original artwork in this exhibit by some of the greats; John Romita Jr, John Cassaday and even Editor-In-Chief of Marvel Comics,  Joe Quesada himself.

Maybe this is a way to kick knowledge to a younger sibling or child about the importance of Black culture and to rekindle your inner child as well (that’s if you’re not a comic book geek). Get there before February 26th cuz after that they’re taking this show on the road! More info at SomosArte.com!
