Chip Kidd, one of the most renowned graphic designers in the world and a Batman aficionado, brought his Manhattan Batman exhibition, “Batman Black and White: Sketch Covers, Commissioned by Chip Kidd,” to artspace. There are 150 of them on display. He invited others to sketch. Ward Sutton created MadBatmen, a spoof on Mad Men with reference to the Joker stealing the Lucky Strike account. Gloria Vanderbilt portrayed Bat Woman with lush red lips, and a sequined cat-eyes mask. The exhibit opened on June 24 and will be up until Aug. 27. — Mary Ann Van Osdell
