Java Arts' new exhibition 'QuickDraw' is exactly that: a collection of
short comic art vignettes by 'Jinja' (AKA John Weeks) in both English
and
Khmer. You'll see observations on daily life as well as musings on
larger issues of living in the Kingdom, garnered over a period of 10
years. Copies of a 30 page color comic (also bilingual) will be
available for sale and signing by the author. The opening is Wednesday
the 18th, 6:30 pm.

In addition to the exhibition, an artist talk on Cambodian comics
history ('50 Years of Cambodian Comics') will take place on the 24th
(in English) with emcee John Berkavitch. All are welcome to learn
about this little known chapter of Cambodian art history.
