23 x 19 in.

With a legacy spanning over half a century, Jules Feiffer is well-known for his wit and levity. Some of his most recognized work is from his weekly contributions to The Village Voice. One of his passions is to capture the dancer form: male dancers, tap and jazz dancers, couples engaged in romantic ballroom poses and contemporary movements. These spontaneous drawings have been exhibited in galleries around the U.S. and were installed in large form ing the courtyard gallery of the World Financial Center.
