Leadership: Oliphant Cartoons and Sculpture
from the Bush Years
Telfair's Jepson Center for the Arts

Australian-born artist Patrick Oliphant is one of the world’s most prominent political cartoonists. He began his career as a copyboy for his hometown newspaper, and was quickly promoted to the position of cartoonist. After coming to the United States in 1964, Oliphant worked as a political cartoonist for the Denver Post, Los Angeles Times, and Washington Star before becoming an independent cartoonist. His work is regularly commissioned by such publications as the New York Times, Washington Post, and The New Yorker. Oliphant has been awarded numerous international honors, including the Pulitzer Prize in 1967. This exhibition, organized by the Susan Conway Gallery in Washington, DC, presents original political cartoons by Patrick Oliphant from the beginning of the 21st century to the present, as well as unique examples of the artist’s work in sculpture and oversized caricature drawings.
