Laziest Launch Party Ever! at Austin Books | Wednesday, February 27, 2008

Austin Museum of Art | Thursday, January 17, 2008 @ 7PM

Draw, Iron Artists, Draw! - AMOA-Downtown Austin, 823 Congress Ave.

For this live drawing competition, Austin artists pay homage to two cultural phenomena: first to Roy Lichtenstein's comic-inspired prints, on view at AMOA, and second, to Iron Chef, the Food Network program with a cultish following. Artists have one hour to create comics based on audience suggestions, and the crowd determines the Iron Artist Champion.  Coldtown Theater improvisation will emcee, referee, and provide live musical accompaniment.

This event is a collaboration with Austin Books and Comics.
