SOUTH BEND, IN – A selection of paintings spanning four decades of Michael Whelan’s career will be on display at the South Bend Museum of Art.

Jeff Miracola, Donglu Yu, and Kirsten Zirngibl join Michael Whelan for Worldbuilders.  The exhibition offers stunning artworks by some of the most exciting artists today. What unites them is the depth, magic and wonder found within the extraordinary worlds they bring to life.

Michael’s contributions to the show include:  Chanur’s Homecoming, The Dark Tower: The Crimson King, The Dark Tower: The Long Road, Ellie’s Dream, Hari (Foundation),  In A World of Her Own, Weyrworld, and The Summer Queen.

The Korshak Collection will also be on view in the adjoining Warner Gallery from Nov 2 – Dec 29.  That collection includes Master Mind of Mars.

The museum will be holding events for SFF fans over several days culminating in the shows’ opening reception on November 9. Michael will be in attendance to meet fans.  He’ll also be part of a panel discussion focusing on the past, present and future of science fiction & fantasy illustration.

Michael hasn’t been to this part of the country for several years so this is a great opportunity to meet him and see his original art.
