Creative Connections: The Art of Eric Carle and Leo Lionni
May 11, 2007 - December 9, 2007
THE ERIC CARLE MUSEUM OF PICTURE BOOK ART presents: Creative Connections: The Art of Eric Carle and Leo Lionni. When Eric Carle returned to America in 1952, a meeting with Leo Lionni resulted in a friendship and a job lead. The rest, as they say, is history. Neither Eric Carle nor Leo Lionni ever imagined they later would create some of the most memorable picture books of our time. The similarities between these two artists are quite striking: their pictures are filled with animals and nature; they drew inspiration from their childhood experiences; and their early careers in graphic design can be seen in their bold simplicity and elegant sense of design.
