Looking forward to this career retrospective of Tomi Ungerer at the Drawing Center, Jan 16 – Mar 22.

 

On my netflix to-do list is watching this movie:

Far Out Isn’t Far Enough.

 

Need an intro to Ungerer? Try this interview with Teri Gross.

This quote by Maurice Sendak on Tomi Ungerer captures why:

“I’m proud of the fact that we helped change the scene in America so that children were dealt with like the intelligent little animals we know they are.”

 

And, this. Kitty-Shaped Kindergarten, which he references in his interview, was designed by Ungerer with architect Ayla Suzan Yöndel. A building where kids walk into the kitty’s mouth and there is a slide in the back for the tail.
