A Sprrrawling Exhibition of Cat-Themed Meowsterpieces
A group exhibition titled "Magnum O-Pspsps" at Cornell University’s Olive Tjaden Gallery in Ithaca, New York, features over 40 artists paying tribute to cats through paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media works. Curated by Cornell MFA students Michael Morgan and Elina Ansary, the salon-style show runs for 10 days through September 25, drawing inspiration from Edward Anthony's 1922 fairytale "The Pussycat Princess" and illustrator Louis Wain's anthropomorphic cat drawings. The exhibition includes works by artists such as Lisa Lebofsky, Tatiana Tatum, Steve Keister, Erika Ranee, Juan Hinojosa, Emily Weiskopf, and Leeza Meksin, with some pieces serving as memorials for deceased feline companions.
