Em Satya is an artist who has worked in nearly every field of illustration. Most foreigners have seen his cartoons as ‘Nono’ in Cambodge Soir, and many Khmer readers have enjoyed his comic adaptations of classics such as Sopaset and Sovannasam. Now, he presents his first comic in graphic novel format, funded with the help of literary aid project VALEASE. ‘Flower of Battambang’ is a graphic novel set in Battambang and Phnom Penh, shelved when the market for local comics experienced a downturn. Nearly two decades later, Em Satya has taken up his pen and finished the story, which has been assembled into one volume. The Exhibition will open on November 6th (original art and signed prints will be on sale). The graphic novel (in Khmer, French and English) will premiere on November 20th.

I Am Ten examines the comics of Lark Pien, whose works range from intimately scaled handmade books to standalone stories in mainstream publications. 2007 marks Pien's tenth year in her exploration of the comics form. Through steady methodical experimentation, Pien's style continues to distill itself, resonating with each story in attempt to produce a fine-tuned clarity. She hopes that this clarity may serve as a bridge from her private and personal world to that of the familiar, the vernacular and the universal. Special to the I Am Ten exhibition is an ongoing installation piece by Pien. She will be painting her story Small Destructions on canvas throughout the month of September, with the work in progress on display for public viewing throughout. A film for the entire installation will debut in October. About the artist: Lark Pien graduated from California Polytechnic University in 1995 with a bachelors degree in architecture. Though she had an interest in comics at an early age, Pien did not make her first comic until 1997. She continued to work in the architectural industry while drawing comics, allotting more time to her artistic interests each year. In 2004, she received the Kim Yale Best New Talent Award from Friends of Lulu. In 2006, Pien officially adopted art as her full time career. She now enjoys her days (and nights) drawing illustrations, oil painting, and creating comics. Pien's handprinted minicomics include Mr. Boombha, Stories from the Ward, and the Long Tail Kitty series. She is the colorist for National Book Award Finalist and Printz Award Winner American Born Chinese, by Gene Yang. She spends half her time working in Oakland, and the other half working in San Francisco. Any halves remaining are devoted to her friends, family, food and travel. The Bay Area Spotlight is part of the Small Press Spotlight program funded by The Fleishhacker Foundation and The Zellerbach Family Foundation.

In the November 2007 issue of WIRED magazine, manga critic Jason Thompson took us back to 1963, when Astro Boy first appeared on U.S. television, and 1987, when the first manga made it to U.S. comic stores, to 2002, when the boom really took off. But did you know about the very first manga-influenced comics in America were published all the way back in the 1970s? Do you know the tragic tale of Raijin Comics, America's first attempt at a weekly manga magazine? Or the unsung dreamers who produced the first translated manga? And you haven't lived until you've experienced the Sailor Moon-meets-hip-hop stylings of MixxZine! The Cartoon Art Museum proudly presents an evening with Jason Thompson, manga editor and author. In October, Del Rey released Thompson's Manga: The Complete Guide, an encyclopedia of 1200+ Japanese comics available in English, most of them reviewed by Thompson himself. Thompson will present an all-new, illustrated presentation on the history of manga in America, with material never before seen in English, followed by a Q&A about the manga market in America, how manga is licensed and edited, and his own experiences in the industry. Thompson will be signing Manga: The Complete Guide. Other Manga: The Complete Guide contributors will also be present. Whether you're a manga newbie or a diehard fujoshi or otaku, it'll be a manga-studded evening which will expand your mind like you've been punched by Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star! About Jason Thompson Jason Thompson has over ten years' experience as a manga editor, producing the English editions of titles such as The Drifting Classroom, Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Dragon Ball Z, Hana-Kimi, One Piece, Shaman King, YuYu Hakusho and Uzumaki. As the first editor of VIZ Media's SHONEN JUMP magazine, he helped launch Japan's #1 bestselling manga magazine in America. His writings on manga appear regularly in Otaku USA magazine, and have also appeared in The Comics Journal, PULP and Animerica. His webcomic The Stiff is available at www.girlamatic.com. --- justin hall cover © Justin Hall December Cartoonist-in-Residence: Justin Hall Saturday, December 8th, 2007, 1pm to 3pm Free and open to the public The Cartoon Art Museum hosts experimental artist Justin Hall as part of its ongoing Cartoonist-in-Residence program.
