La Luz de Jesus Gallery is pleased to present “The Exploration of the Cartoon Myth” by artist Frank Forte. This will mark Frank’s second exhibition with the gallery. Inspired by a steady diet of classic cartoons, comics and horror films, Frank Forte continues to explore the realm of disturbed characters that seem trapped in a nightmarish animated world. This new series of paintings incorporate the reappropriation of figures and images we know from the yesteryear of the animated film as well as introducing Frank’s original characters. We also see the return of “Dickey Wolf” and “Molly,” two-bit players that, despite their previous disembowelments, decapitations and seemingly horrid demises, still keep returning to the canvas like some reanimated Lovecraftian horror. The Exploration of the Cartoon Myth tries the fuse the old and the new and act as a launching point for the next series of works.
