Chris Ware
Lockdown
Medium: digital

Chris Ware has drawn inspiration again and again from his experiences raising his daughter, Clara, and from his wife, Marnie, and her job as a teacher. He has caught moments that feel bittersweet, humorous, sad, and joyful. In Lockdown, Ware turns his gaze to the ongoing tragedy of gun violence in schools, which has forced students, teachers, and parents to accept active-shooter drills as a routine part of the school year.
