SUMMARY:Visiting Artist Lecture - Gregory Manchess\, Illustrator
DESCRIPTION:VISITING ARTIST LECTURE WITH GREGORY MANCHESS\, ILLUSTRATOR: The WCSU Department of Art will host Gregory Manchess\, an award-winning illustrator whose work has appeared on the covers and feature stories of National Geographic Magazine\, Time\, Atlantic Monthly\, and The Smithsonian. He has also had numerous commissions from the US Postal Service\, recently a set of Christmas stamps in 2023. His free lecture will be at 11 a.m. in Room 144 of the Visual and Performing Arts Center on the Westside campus. \nManchess’ projects and commissions are varied and vast in scope. In 2011\, the National Geographic Society sent him on an expedition to illustrate the adventures of the first discovery of an actual pirate ship; this led to the traveling exhibition\, “Real Pirates: The Untold Story of The Whydah\, from Slave Ship to Pirate Ship.” In 2017\, his first ‘widescreen novel\,’ which he wrote and illustrated\, Above the Timberline\, was released. Thirty of the 120+ paintings from the book were recently featured in an exhibition at the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge\, MA. His work is also highlighted in the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Library and Museum in Springfield\, Illinois\, with a large portrait of Lincoln and seven major paintings of key moments from Lincoln’s life. \nManchess exhibits frequently at the Society of Illustrators in NYC\, and in 1999\, he was presented with their highest honor\, the Hamilton King Award. He is included in Walt Reed’s edition of The Illustrator in America\, 1860-2000\, and currently lectures at universities and colleges nationwide. \nFree and open to the public\, limited seating available.
