• Art Spiegelman: Disaster is my Muse, Curzon Bloomsbury, Brunswick Centre, 8.30pm.
  Art Spiegelman's Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel MAUS is a landmark in reckoning with the Holocaust and breakthrough in serious comic art – but his full achievements are more remarkable and eclectic. Art Spiegelman: Disaster is my Muse provides intimate access to the man and mind who revolutionised the art form of comics. Spiegelman proves an eloquent guide through his provocative work, along with contemporaries and younger cartoonists inspired by his unflinching confrontation of personally traumatic themes. Disaster is my Muse is a portrait of an artist fully engaged with his past and his present who, with his chosen medium of comics, helps us to understand our turbulent world, and is testimony to the power of art to make sense of our personal and collective histories.
