Description: A brief biography with a sample illustration for the American artist.
If ever a comic strip was Art, "Krazy Kat" was its best candidate for that honor. An undefinable amalgam of drama, humor, poetry line, tone and color, the cartoon feature was created by published from 1916 to 1944. Its plot line was a skewed triangle: the central "Krazy Kat" of ambiguous gender, in love with "Ignatz" mouse, who did not return the compliment but retaliated with a thrown brick, and "Offissa Pup", the constable who ineffectually tried to protect "Krazy" from the brick by remanding Ignatz in jail. "Krazy", however, wanted no protection, misinterpreting the thrown brick as an expression of Ignatz's love. Variations of this theme were played out endlessly with added mixtures of complementary characters, such as "Don Kiyoti", "Sancho Pansy", "Kolin Kelly", who baked the bricks, Joe Stork, and "Gooseberry Sprigg."
