Klaus Janson is a legend. And now he’s getting the legendary treatment with his first U.S. art show, opening at the Philippe Labaune Gallery in New York. Not in NYC? No worries, brah, we got you, with this exclusive look at several of the pages on display in the gallery.
“Through this survey, Klaus Janson emerges as a singular figure whose adaptability, sensitivity, and understanding have permanently expanded what comics can achieve,” Philippe Labaune said via press release. “His ability to work as a penciler, inker, colorist, writer, and teacher demonstrates the depth and range of his contributions to the medium and underscores why this exhibition is so significant. The exhibition celebrates a life in comics, offering a rare and considered perspective on the medium, and honoring an artist whose work has defined the visual and emotional language of American comics for generations.”
On display are five decades of work and over 100 pieces including collabos with Frank Miller, John Romita Jr., John and Sal Buscema, Dick Giordano, Bill Sienkiewicz, Gil Kane, and Gene Colan. What we have below is 11 pages from Frank Miller’s take on The Atom fighting dinosaurs, inked by Janson. Cool!
Per PR, “The Klaus Janson Exhibition will be open to the public from Friday March 6th until Saturday April 11th. There will be an opening reception on March 5th from 6 PM to 9 PM.” Check out the exclusive pages, below.
