Bursting on the world’s awareness like a supernova in 1967, when he was there are the genesis ( sorry) of what would come to be called “Underground Comics,” a genre of which he soon became the de-facto figurehead of, and, for many, it’s most important Artist. Crumb’s work occupies a unique place somewhere between what’s been traditionally the so-called “low-brow” world of comics and “Fine Art,” that’s been hard won. Adapted from The New Yorker’s Macover called “Opening Night.” I couldn’t resist. My Apologies to Artist Carter Goodrich, and the great editor Francoise Mouly (a friend of R. The Nighthawk At The Opening (Artist’s conception, cause I generally don’t attend them). I’m not one to attend Art Openings unless an Artist I’m interested in is making an appearance. In fact, If I’m not careful, this will become a Photography Blog very soon!) and have a look see, anyway. I tried in vain to find out if he would be appearing at the opening for the show co-starring his wife of FORTY YEARS (in 2018), Aline Kominsky-Crumb, “Drawn Together,” on January 12, then decided to take a chance and swing by David Zwirner Gallery (most recently the scene of “ William Eggleston- The Democratic Forest,” which pretty much turned my entire life upside down, launching my free-fall into a bottomless pit of research into Contemporary Photography. The chance to see the Artist himself, rarer still. Unfortunately, the chances to see a number of original works by R.

I started NighthawkNYC to share what I've discovered along the way- as Steely Dan put it so well. Anyway.Art and Music are my twin passions, and have been for a very long time.
I named this site NighthawkNYC in homage to Hopper’s immortal Painting, and that figure that no one ever talks about. As much as any work of Art I've ever seen is. Well, that figure, sitting with his back to us is. I felt like I was standing next to my soul. Here, I’m standing in front of the REAL Nighthawks, Edward Hopper's Timeless Masterpiece from 1942, at the "old" Whitney Museum during the Hopper Drawing Show in 2013. Welcome to my site.
