And Picasso Painted Guernica order quantity
  +   -
 
NZ$ 40.00 each
Hardback
Author: Alain Serres Translated by Rosalind Price
In Stock: 4
Customer Order Reference:
Picasso's artistic genius was clear from childhood. This superbly illustrated book begins with the doves young Pablo painted with his father when he was only seven, then shows us his later passions for harlequins and street people, bulls and minotaurs, new ways of seeing and new ways of rendering life. All of these contributed to the massive work Guernica, of 1936, painted as a protest against the bombing of defenceless civilians and against the brutality of war everywhere. It is a biography of both an epoch-making artist and a unique painting that resonated with the outrage of people around the world.
This beautiful book for children shows us an artist's life, the creation of a masterpiece, and the power of colour to dispel the dark.

13 Women Artists Children Should Know order quantity

NZ$ 45.00 each
Hardback
Author: Betina Schuemann
In Stock: 1
Customer Order Reference:
This book teaches a young audience about the works and lives of thirteen women artists through informative texts, puzzles, coloring exercises, and fun quizzes. In colourful spreads that feature important works as well as portraits of the artists themselves, children will learn how Sofonisba Anguissola, the Renaissance painter and pupil of Michelangelo, mastered portraiture in the Spanish Court; how the exquisitely wrought illustrations of Maria Sybilla Merian advanced the study of nature in the seventeenth century; and how Mary Cassatt's paintings depicted the lives of women in the nineteenth century. Modern and contemporary artists such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Frida Kahlo, Louise Bourgeois, and Cindy Sherman round out this introduction to women artists for children.
