The Williams College Museum of Art in Williamstown, Mass., will exhibit 60 original drawings, sketches and cartoons by Rube Goldberg (1883-1970),whose cartoons pointed out the foibles of human nature, officials said. The exhibit, which opens Sept. 11 and runs through Oct. 25, spans the early and middle periods of Goldberg’s career and includes a selection of weekly comic strips and drawings of inventions that best exemplify his work, exhibit curator Thomas Fels said. The exhibit, called “Rube Goldberg: Drawings and Cartoons,” will be the first major showing of his work since 1970, Fels said. The show consists of original works on paper that were donated to the museum by the Goldberg family.
