Spider-man was created in 1962 making this comic book character 60 years old this year. The world needs to celebrate heroes, real or fictional and Spider-man is one of the biggest comic book heroes of all time. Creator Stan Lee created a hero for the youth to look up to, a hero with flaws and everyday problems just like any normal person. A hero that we can relate to.
To celebrate the anniversary of his creation, St.Lorient and The Viewing Room Art Gallery asked artists to create works inspired by the Spider-man character.
