Forever and Ever Again | Release Party

February 13, 2020 - February 13, 2020

Thursday February 13, 2020

Please join Arts of Life, Perfectly Acceptable Press, Ben Marcus, and David Krueger in the launch of Love Man: Forever and Ever Again – Collected Comics 2015 – 2020.   Forever and Ever Again collects the collaborative comics and illustrations of Ben and Dave focusing on the titular Love Man, “a star or a floating alien light that occasionally takes the shape of a human to look for love on planet Earth, but struggles to find it.” These comics have previously appeared in publications by Good-Bye Press and Caboose Press (formerly Tan & Loose Press). Have a drink and enjoy a mini-exhibition of original drawings by the duo. Copies of the book will be available for sale alongside other assorted Love Man ephemera.

Become a Studio Artist

We were founded with the idea that the studio belongs to its artists. The guiding principle behind the studio is to give people an opportunity to shape and be a member of an artistic community; a community that changes with the growing needs of the artists and one that is a contributing member of the larger society.
