Get ready to be blown away by the upcoming exhibition, Alex Ross: Heroes & Villains, set to roll out at the Bess Bower Dunn Museum in Libertyville, Illinois this summer. It's a can't-miss event, showcasing more than a century of Alex Ross' legendary comic art.
While you might recognize his iconic retro spins on Marvel and DC characters gracing comic covers, murals, merch, and more, this exhibit takes it to the next level, offering an up-close-and-personal experience.
If you're wondering what's so special about it, let us Tell ya! Over a hundred original pieces art, produced over the past two decades of Ross' stellar career in comics, will be displayed for the first time ever, showcasing both his DC and Marvel work side by side. It's a superhero feast like no other!
Alex Ross himself had this to say, "I'm positively gleeful to join forces with the Bess Bower Dunn Museum once more for this new exhibition. It's a rare treat to see so many of my original paintings together under one roof, and I'm confident that visitors will find it quite a spectacle."
As a cherry on top, three brand-spanking-new portraits, commissioned especially for the occasion, will make their debut at the museum, exclusively available for admirers throughout the exhibition's run.
