'A dreamlike meditation on our elemental companion' - Brain Pickings A beautiful illustrated book for children about the weather based around works from MoMA's collection Weather, Weather, the third volume in a series of collaborations between the artist Maira Kalman, the writer Daniel Handler (a.k.a. Lemony Snicket), and The Museum of Modern Art, is an evocative exploration of physical environments and their metaphoric implications. From the rainy streets of Paris to a sun-dappled pool in Beverly Hills, these photographs from MoMA’s collection offer surprising points of departure. Featuring ten vibrant new paintings by Kalman, inspired by the photographs, and poetic prose by Handler that inflects the images with new meaning, Weather, Weather is a wry and tender reflection on passing seasons, changing perspectives, and the unpredictability of life Details Authors: Daniel Handler and Maira Kalman Age range: 9-13 Hardcover: 64 pages Date published: October 2016 Language: English ISBN: 978-1633450141 Product Dimensions: 20.3 x 15.3 cm Show more
