Jewish women having been breaking boundaries as they record their experiences of Jewish culture, grapple with self-expression and document their own bodies. Sarah Lightman will present “Die Bubbeh” (1975) by Sharon Rudahl, “Baby Talk: A Tale of 4 Miscarriages” (1994) by Diane Noomin, “Sheretz” (2003) by Miriam Libicki, as well as her own graphic novel, The Book of Sarah (2019). In this talk she will reflect on how these artists play with and disregard the conventions of the world of comics, and deploy extraordinary approaches towards visual narrative, through shape, space and font.
