The Art of MAD – Talk with gallery viewing
Thursday, July 18, 2024
Join Stephanie Haboush Plunkett, co-curator of What, Me Worry? The Art and Humor of MAD Magazine for an illustrated lecture that chronicles the history of MAD Magazine and the legendary artists, art directors, and writers who made MAD such a success. Plunkett will discuss highlights from over 250 original illustrations and cartoons on view; created by MAD’s “Usual Gang of Idiots” and from a younger generation of MAD creators. Learn more about the origins of MAD’s clueless, but loveable mascot Alfred E. Neuman and MAD’s parodies of Norman Rockwell illustrations. In addition to the iconic covers, Plunkett will also discuss MAD’s signature features such as Spy vs. Spy, Fold-ins, caricatures and MAD’s satirical send-ups of politics, parodies of movies, television, and brand-name advertisements.

Land Acknowledgement
It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
