“Texas born artist Frank Stack has made Columbia his home since 1963. He served as a professor of Art at MU for 40 years and has continued to be active in the local art community since his retirement. His oils, watercolors, intaglio, and lithographic images often represent the Missouri landscape, although he is equally well known for his figure paintings and work as a graphic novel/comic artist. Stack’s artwork is held in collections nationally and internationally; and it was even featured in the 2003 Academy-Award-nominated Paul Giamatti film, “American Splendor.””
