Marvelocity: The Art of Alex Ross

Now through February 18, 2024, Marvelocity: The Art of Alex Ross is on display at the MSV! Considered one of the greatest artists in the field of comic books, Alex Ross (b. 1970) has created some of the most iconic images known to fans today. For nearly 30 years, he has revitalized classic superheroes into works of fine art by illustrating characters including Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Storm from the X-Men, the Avengers, Black Panther, and many more.

In addition to highlighting original art from his most recent book, Marvelocity illustrates Ross’s artistic path through a display of his childhood drawings, preliminary sketches, paintings, and  three-dimensional head busts of characters in the Marvel Universe. Alex Ross books and other exhibition-related merchandise will be available for purchase in the Museum Store.

Marvelocity: The Art of Alex Ross was developed by the Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County. The exhibition’s MSV display is sponsored by Shenandoah Oncology and iHeartMedia.
