The Corcoran School of the Arts and Design is launching a pop-up show of cartoons by Rob Rogers this summer. Conveniently located across from the White House, the Trump-centric exhibit showcases all the cartoons killed by Rogers' former employer, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Co-sponsored by the AAEC, Spiked: The Unpublished Political Cartoons of Rob Rogers, runs from July 18 to Oct. 14, 2018. In addition to the opening reception (which is already sold out!), the Corcoran will be hosting a "series of conversations regarding issues around censorship, freedom of the press, journalistic integrity and the consequences of nationalism to a democracy in collaboration with both the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists and GW's School for Media and Public Affairs."
Michael Cavna wrote about the show in the Washington Post when it was first announced. For details about upcoming talks, check back here in the coming weeks.
"Spiked: The Unpublished Political Cartoons of Rob Rogers" is in the Atrium Galleries at Flagg Building, 500 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20006.
