Gag Me With A Toon 5

WWA Gallery

Last Chance - May 4 through June 1, 2013

Rewind to the sugar highs of childhood Saturday mornings and "toon" in on May 4th to this year's "Gag Me with a Toon 5" presented by WWA Gallery and curated by artists Steven Daily and Tomi Monstre.

Throughout, signifiers borrowed from maritime and shipping contexts have been passed through a visual sieve woven from numerous art historical tropes.
