Praise life with art - the world illustration exhibition visit handbook"Miss it, is equal to miss half a century of the beauty of illustration" finally resisted so attractive publicity compulsion, in the Mid-Autumn Festival this reunion day, our family of three into the Beijing National Canonical Museum, visited the International Hans Christian Andersen (Lifetime Achievement Award) 50th Anniversary Exhibition and World Illustration Exhibition being held there. 25 International Hans Christian Andersen Award Illustrator Award winners, 300 original works of art across the oceans, which brings us a lot of longing and expectation.
Standing in front of the National Canonical Books Museum, first attracted by a huge painting of the steps, this is an illustration of the Ugly Duckling, which covers almost the entire steps in front of the museum, in the upper-left corner of the illustration exhibition icon, such a huge painting immediately made us excited, children jumping and their dads to pick up the steps.
The security check at the entrance is very strict, food and drinks are not allowed to be brought in, the tin box of chewing gum is not allowed, and backpacks have to be stored. However, after the entrance to the huge promotional panels or eye-catching a lot, the organizers chose the most famous picture book gorilla (Anthony Browne's works as the main character) as a promotional poster is very eye-catching, the gorilla corners of the mouth, the eyes of the grudge, the head of the squatting a cute kitten, the picture is very vivid. Children do not like the black gorilla, refused to take pictures, we went straight to the ticket office, double set of tickets 147 yuan, children's tickets 55 yuan. Children because not enough 1 meter 2, a lot of places are free tickets, which always makes her nagging, this time with their own exclusive children's tickets is very excited.
Entering the exhibition hall before the wall of a row of Andersen illustration award winners of the portrait attraction, each of which is marked with the year of the award as well as representative works, these painters from different countries, children are not familiar with those tongue-twisting name is not easy to remember, but the children still found the name of the many classic picture books that she has read, such as Frog Frogger, the magical queen of color, the small Kay!
In order to prevent children from walking around and swallowing all of them, I deliberately spent 20 yuan to buy a brochure, each of which will be visited by the location of a deductible, the children can do it themselves. However, the child will not listen to the adult's arbitrary arrangements, she entered the exhibition hall and went straight to the "Frog Frogger" sculpture. Froggy Frogger's Growing Up Story" is a set of books that children have been fascinated by for a long time, and the little frog wearing striped pants in the book attracted her so much that she once asked me to read 12 books in one breath. The author of this set of picture books is from the Netherlands, Max Velcius, I did not expect to face the master of the real, the children swept away, went straight to the interactive experience area, where there is a big screen, you can freely choose the illustrations, fill in the colors, the children have found the fun, play over and over again. In the children's self-play high, I carefully watched the original work, the picture bright colors, not too much painting skills, simple and simple, and it is this popular little frog, to the children penetrated a lot of important life proposition, friendship, love, life, the world and so on, soothing the growing children's minds.
I didn't realize that among these illustration award winners were once-banned works, such as Beastly Kingdom. When I opened the reading record two years ago, it was clearly written that the child was not afraid of these green fangs, strange-looking beasts, but happily named them, and she strongly requested to buy a set of Maikos (the name of the main character in the book) like the wolf costume with a tail. You can imagine how much the children loved this book. The book was once banned from libraries, but good books are eventually discovered, and Maurice Sendak's name was on the list for the 1970 Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration. When we went into the originals and really looked at them, the drawings felt very detailed and beautiful.
In addition to works banned, there are also banned by the author, from France, Tommy Wenger in 1998 won the Grand Prix for illustration, because of his creation of a hundred taboos, resulting in his children's books in libraries across the United States was banned for more than 20 years. We are more familiar with the book is his "three robbers", this book two days ago the children have been looking at, I was also a little puzzled by the story, although the ending is very warm, but the robbers, after all, some evil and dark. But children actually like this book very much, this exhibition, she is in this book before the original work is very stay a while, and asked me those blue in the end how to paint.
In this exhibition there are a lot of Anthony Browne's works, "gorillas", "voices in the park", "dreamer Willy" and so on, because the children do not like the black, fierce gorillas, a lot of these books we have not yet read, but in this exhibition of paintings the children found this surrealist master of the subtle, the artist hidden in the book of the small details y attracted her, "Mom, that's the book, that's the one that I'm talking about, I don't know what it is, I'm talking about the book. "Mom, that gorilla is wearing a pair of banana shoes" "Mom, that microphone is a banana", the closer you look, the more interesting you will find, it seems that we will love gorillas in the future, this series of books can be borrowed to read.
There are many other masterpieces in this exhibition, some familiar, some unfamiliar, but you can follow the map and save them for the days to come to enjoy reading with your children. We made a simple list of books: Gorilla Series, Loud Mother, Mr. Moon, Traveling Picture Books, Suhe's White Horse, Children of the Everglades, Little Charcoal Burner, Droopy Bear, Fantastic Beasts, and so on, and this is a simple way to keep track of the books.
Out of the exhibition hall, in the corner of the display of a number of picture books, many are not sold separately, but as the theme of the exhibition of 50 books into a set of the overall sale of discounted to more than 3,000 yuan, I looked carefully, this set of books is from the Taiwan publishing house, the entire book is in traditional Chinese characters, which is in the literacy period of the young children is not suitable for the enthusiasts can be collected. In the souvenir area, we chose a picture book with the illustration of "The Ugly Duckling" as a souvenir.
The two halls of the exhibition are not that big, we spent nearly two and a half hours, inside the play and watch, children learn from the past, but also gained something. I personally, although the painting is not too proficient, but see the masters of the paintings, feel the piety, they are every painting of every stroke is taken seriously, take those gorillas, for example, when we look carefully will find that in the tens of thousands of hairs, each one is seriously in the paintings, there is no scribbling and perfunctory.
Praise life with art, walking through the 50th anniversary of the Andersen Illustration Award, we feel the innocence and beauty of the world, those exquisite paintings will be transformed into a power of love into the hearts of children, become a kind of faith.
Without a treasure trove, how do you plan to see the International Hans Christian Andersen Award World Illustration ExhibitionOctober 4, the literary old mother pondered that the peak of the National Day trip has been perfectly staggered, and then proposed to go to the Sea World Culture and Arts Center to watch the International Hans Christian Andersen Award Illustration Exhibition.
However, no one responded.
Sister looked to her brother: "Picture book illustration exhibition ah, elementary school students to see how boring, brother to see it!"
Brother looked to mom, a face of confusion: "Well, uh ~ what exhibition?"
Mom was prepared for this, and turned out the poster for the illustration show, "The Ugly Duckling":
The two siblings were immediately impressed: "The Ugly Duckling, I want to go, I want to go!"
So the mom took the siblings to the illustration show.
Mom actually came prepared. Ever since she heard about the exhibition from her friends, she had done a lot of homework in advance, not only familiarizing herself with the exhibition guide from local art education institution, Yoyi Yama, but also devouring the "Picture Book Book Book" compiled by Denise, a renowned early childhood educator in the United States.
The old mother can't help but feel satisfied as she fantasizes about her mother talking about the classic works of the illustration masters to her two children in the exhibition hall.
Walking into the showroom, the fantasy was shattered. But see a painstaking literary old mother, crowded in front of the painting anxiously calling baby: "Come and see, come and see, this is not your favorite picture book illustration?" And the bear children turned a deaf ear, flocked to a few interactive areas, up and down, rolled, pushed and shoved, not happy.
My kids, of course, are no exception.
Mom had just instructed the two siblings not to get separated, when his brother slipped into the interactive area. Mom had to leave her sister behind and, after a successful chase, led her brother to the Ugly Duckling.
Taking advantage of her brother's daze over the painting, her mother quickly opened the book: the author, Robert Yingpan, is a master of realistic illustration from the southern continent, specializing in narrating stories in a delicate and realistic style
Before the book was finished, her brother was already tired of watching the ugly duckling, and started an interactive game with the work.
Interacting with the works of Tatyana Marina, the alchemist of Russian folk art:
Interacting with the works of Liesbeth Zweig, the elegant queen of Austrian illustrated books:
Electronic screen doodling:
Thus, it seems to be beneficial to bring children to the exhibition regularly, and his younger brother, who used to scurry about all over the venue without knowing where he was going, is now at a stage where posing for photos is naturally blended into the scene.
When his brother was exhausted from the interaction, his sister, who was alone at the exhibition, found us: "Mom, let's go, I've seen all the works."
Is that the end of it? No, mom smiled awkwardly but kindly, it was time to activate the treasure trove: "Well, which masters are your favorite, and show us?"
Sister nodded and took us to Mr. Bunny and the Wonderful Gift. This is the work of the famous children's literature picture book author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, the painting style is beautiful and delicate. He is a five-time winner of the Caddick Award, the highest honor in American picture books, and the first American to win the International Hans Christian Andersen Award for illustration.
Sandak, who had a weak and sickly childhood, reflected in his picture books all the complex emotions of anxiety, fear and frustration in the process of children's growth, which was a subversive revolution at that time. The Beastly Kingdom, Kitchen Night Rhapsody, and In That Faraway Place, three masterpieces in Sandack's own eyes, initially received mixed reviews.
The Beastly Kingdom, once banned from libraries, was later adapted into an animation and a musical, and became a highly regarded classic, hailed as "a strange, unprecedented picture book". Some psychological researchers have interpreted Max's image in "Beastly Kingdom" by combining the archetypes of ego, shadow, mask and anima in Jung's theory of personality.
Seeing the illustrations of the beasts in the scene is quite scary, as if a nightmare from childhood, while the main character Max is at ease:
Learning about Maurice Sendak's scary childhood, it seems to be able to further understand the significance of the work: a child who gradually learns to overcome his own fears in the course of an adventure.
"What really shapes us is the child that few of us have the courage to face - the impatient, demanding child who wants love and power, but never has enough of it, and is always angry and crying, long before indoctrination reaches your heart. " This quote from Maurice Sendak may have been the reason he created a series of classics in the first place.
Sister's second favorite guru was the surreal spokesman for child psychology, Anthony Browne.
Anthony Browne, categorized as a British surrealist, is a double winner of the International Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustrators and the Kate Greenaway Award for his picture books. His works are sharp and colorful, and he is good at using contrasts to create a dramatic picture with a surreal element.
Willie, the coolest gorilla of all, is Anthony Browne's most popular character. "With his familiar expressions of anger, sadness and joy, Willie is the voice of children's emotions. Another promotional poster for the exhibition is taken from his famous 2008 picture book "Gorilla and the Little Star".
Anthony Brown said: "For me, designing a picture book is like making a movie, where the structure of the book is a combination of close-ups and vistas. My work, on the other hand, is a combination of talent (at the risk of stating the obvious) and thought, and it's hard to separate the two."
Seeing that the two children were mesmerized, the mother continued: "Every illustration is a work of art, and a master illustrator can't make a successful work with just his drawing skills, but he also needs to understand the children's spiritual world.
And a classic illustration transcends borders and generations.
Next, let's take a look at mom's favorite masters!"
Mom's first favorite master is Scandinavian naturalist Svan Ott.
Svan Ott's paintings have a freshness to them, and the layers of transparent watercolor are subtle and rich, like the cold air of the Nordic countries. As if facing a forest mist or a warm sun with clean light, the realistic scenes also exude an ethereal artistry.
Svan Ott has illustrated many of Hans Christian Andersen's classic fairy tales, such as Thumbelina and The Ugly Duckling. He is especially good at capturing melancholy, sad or humorous scenes in fairy tales and depicting them with fresh brushstrokes.
Mom's second favorite master is the elegant Austrian queen of picture books, Liesbeth Zweig.
Liesbeth Zweig was 36 when she won the International Hans Christian Andersen Award in 1990. Beauty, fantasy, grotesqueness, and delightful sentimentality, mixed with movement, dance, nature, and fantasy, all add up to make Zweig's art. There is a dreamlike quality in her paintings, very magical, but also very subtle and elegant.
Mom was a child at a time when picture books had not yet begun in China, and most of her peers had not been exposed to the concept of picture books, and basically jumped directly from small books to text books. The most impressive thing in my childhood memory is the illustrations in Andersen's fairy tales and Grimm's fairy tales. Those beautiful princesses, dreamy landscapes and touching stories gave us great courage to go after the beautiful things that we couldn't see in the real world.
With the banner of sharing our favorite illustrators, we took a closer look at the illustration gallery. At the end of the day, the children left the exhibition hall with great anticipation for the masters' illustrated books.
Eggs at the end of the article: "Picture book treasures" reveals the secrets of picture books
1, what is a picture book?
Picture books, or picture books, are taken from the Japanese term for picture books. A picture book is a work of art that relies on illustrations and text*** to tell a narrative, folio pages to show scenes, and page turns for dramatic effect.
The Caddick Award, the world's most prestigious picture book award, defines the criteria for a picture book as follows:
2. Is a book with illustrations also a picture book?
Broadly speaking, picture books include books with illustrations, but the picture books we usually refer to are different from story books with illustrations, and generally refer to picture books in which the pictures are more important than the words, and the pictures dominate the narrative.
3. Why read picture books? Does reading a text book or an illustrated book serve the same purpose?
Picture books can not only promote children's literacy, increase children's aesthetic experience and artistic experience, but also, more importantly, develop children's visual literacy. The development of visual literacy is something that can't be done with text books or illustrated books, and it's also something that we tend to overlook.
4, choose what picture books to read?
Method 1: Read all the works of a particular author.
Method 2: Choose 10 or more works of the same subject/genre.
Method 3: Select all award-winning works, such as the Caddick Award and the Boston Globe Horn Book Award winners.
5. How do I study a picture book?
