ART: Dave Eggers's "Lots of Things Like This"

Award-winning novelist Dave Eggers is the curator of “Lots of Things Like This,” an exhibit at apexart featuring works by photographer Tucker Nichols, graphic artist R. Crumb, and authors Shel Silverstein and Kurt Vonnegut, among many others. The pieces on view are a combination of one-panel cartoons and text-based art, what Mr. Eggers describes as “somewhat crude, usually irreverent, and always funny.” The exhibit is made up of about 100 pieces, and explores how humor can be applied to fine art and in what forms. There is an opening reception on Wednesday, April 2, at 6 p.m.
