and Monsters - November 24, 2009 to April 18, 2010! Maidens and Monsters: The Art of Science Fiction, Adventure, and Fantasy will debut at the Albin Polasek Museum and Sculpture Gardens in this November 24, 2009 and run through April 18, 2010. Alien worlds, brawny heroes, strange beasts, and buxom beauties are represented in this exhibition, which spans 80 years of science fiction and fantasy pulp magazine covers and book jacket illustrations from 1914 to 1995. This will be the first time the world-renowned, private Korshak Collection of original fantasy art will be shown to the public. These paintings and drawings by 22 grand-masters of illustration appeared on the covers and pages of timeless adventure stories such as the Allan Quatermain series by H. Rider Haggard and the Tarzan and John Carter of Mars series by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Classic sci-fi and fantasy pulp magazines are represented from the 1910s to the 1960s, such as AMAZING STORIES, WEIRD TALES, and WONDER STORIES. Original works by N. C. Wyeth, Frank Frazetta, Michael Whelan, Frank R. Paul, Virgil Finlay, Stanley Meltzoff, Kelly Frank Freas, and J. Allen St. John, among other artists will be on display.
