Artists celebrate
cartoons' appeal
By David Wood
Something in everyone loves a good cartoon.
Something about rounding edges into hard lines!
something about reducing shapes to lumps of
color and rendering content as its own parody
appeals to the child in us all. Celebrating the cud
dly cuteness at the core of most things somehow
dispels cynicism.
The carnival of art on display and for sale at
the Haymarket Art Gallery attests to that fact.
The four artists, whose work it is, know the at-
Art Review
traction of cartoons and aptly apply it to their
assorted media.
Yet their art is also the product of careful
craftsmanship and thereby appeals to the adult
m us as well. The drawings of Janelle Lenser
Schultz, the soft sculptures of Danielle Bodine,
the wooden vehicles of Steve Baldwin and the
wire sculptures of Larry Sosso will be shown
through Nov. 14.
Lenser-Schultz studied art at Midland College
in Fremont and at UNL. Her bright pictures are
sophisticated cartoons of cartoons. Wiggly black
lines trap blobs of festive color without the loose
ness connoted by "drawings." She is as exact as
an animator.
Bodine was born in Scottsbluff and graduated
from the University of Washington in clothing
design. Her cryptic needlework and conical, bug
eyed birds have Native American and cave-art
aspects to them and invite viewers to touch.
Baldwin, who graduated from UNL in indust
rial arts, makes models of antique cars and modern
trucks out of fine woods. They are like sturdy
toys made by a quality furniture-maker.
Sosso's wire sculptures and mobiles use wire,
scrap metal and shellacked tissue to render sketches
three-dimensional. He, and the others, prove that
cartoons aren't for kids only.
