Guggenheim for Gloeckner
April 14th 2008 -
(via THE BEAT)Cartoonist and art teacher Phoebe Gloeckner has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, which she’ll use to work on a graphic novel about a Mexican girl murdered in Ciudad Juarez. At ImageText last month, Gloeckner was one of the keynote speakers, and she discussed both the project and the heartwrenching research that had gone into it. It’s going to be a phenomenal book.Congratulations, Phoebe!
