EP. 693: NAKED CITY: AN EVENING WITH ARTIST ERIC DROOKER

Get Naked City Here: https://a.co/d/cPlmelb

 

In this long-awaited book, three bohemians—a painter, a street dancer, and an aspiring musician—struggle to answer the question: “Is it possible for an artist to survive in the 21st Century?”

 

Devoid of family, a young singer hitchhikes to Manhattan, befriends a street dancer she meets while busking and, desperate for rent, poses for a painter who has shifted from landscapes to nudes. The relationships lead all three of them to ponder the purpose of art and the meaning of success.

 

Naked City takes us inside the head of artist, and native New Yorker, Eric Drooker, whose award-winning graphic novels—beginning with Flood!—have charted new terrain for the form. A meditation on art and life, it reveals two truths: “inspiration appears when you least expect it” and “art is a non-stop hustle.”
