Exhibition Overview
Humor's Edge celebrates Ann Telnaes's generous gift to
the Library of Congress of eighty-one original drawings that represent
the range of themes that engage this gifted artist who has recently
emerged as a leader in American editorial cartooning. An artist who
bravely criticizes the actions and words of powerful public figures,
Telnaes takes stands on complex, divisive issues and affirms the
editorial cartoon as a potent means of expressing opinions and illuminating
issues of the day.
