Clientele
In the time-honored tradition of William Hogarth, Francisco Goya, Honoré Daumier, Thomas Nast,and George Grosz, the illustrator-author utilizes reinterpreted iconic imagery to critique controversial issues of the day. It’s a wild and witty satiric ride thru turbulent events and topics of the day. Sex, politics, law, race, religion, gender, and culture wars. Nothing is sacred.
Hull’s art has received global recognition. It has been widely exhibited in museums in the United States (The Brooklyn Museum 17th National Print Exhibition), Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, Canada, France (the Pompidou Center), Greece, Norway, Switzerland (The International Cartoon Exhibition in Basel), Turkey (The Biennale of Humour), United Kingdom, and Museum of the City of Skopje, North Macedonia (one-woman show.)
