Small Press Expo announces Fort Thunder/Monster Debut Event

By admin | Published: September 3, 2010
Media Release -- From 1995 to 2001, the Fort Thunder artists' space and performance venue in Providence, Rhode Island was a fertile creative center. Work produced by artists living at the Fort – both at the time and individually in the years since the space was shut down – has been enormously influential in the worlds of fine art, music, and comics. In addition to a wealth of posters, prints, artists' books and individual comics, two publications served as the venue's de facto comics anthologies: the mini-comics series Monster and the comics newspaper Paper Rodeo. Nine years after the Fort's closing, a new issue of Monster will debut at this year's SPX. Read more
