Chicago native Chris Ware has a connection to New York, though appearances are few and far between, fewer than his New Yorker covers. Rare as they may be, Ware does show in the city occasionally. In connection with the release of Acme Novelty Library #20, Adam Baumgold Gallery will feature the complete drawings from the upcoming book. The exhibition will also be accompanied by original sketches from his proposed television shows for “The ACME Novelty Network,” and “Quimby the Mouse.” Both of which appear to be “ill fated and sated” according to the press release. The exhibition will be on view starting September 16 and will run through October 23rd.
