RIP Maurice Sendak
I love the work of Maurice Sendak. I don’t agree with everything he says about what young children need to be exposed to, but that’s something else. He was a great writer, thinker, teacher, artist and human being. And who better to illustrate his last interview with NPR’s Terry Gross than Christoph Niemann? Beautiful. I’m sorry Terry Gross couldn’t reciprocate the love he gave her, but that’s how it is. We pass like ships in the night…
Giant tree lights!
I love the big tree light sculpture outside the McGraw-Hill building. Don’t know who’s responsible.
The style
This poster is nothing special, but it uses so many graphic and type trends from the last ten years that I wanted to archive it. It’s a humble little sign of the times.
