“Whether interpreted as a scathing criticism of modern art, a primordial expression of the futility of life, or a hilarious twist on sanitized children's literature, We Go to the Gallery is unforgettable.” –Midwest Book Review
Have you taken children to a gallery recently? Did you struggle to explain the work to them in plain, simple English? With this new Dung Beetle book by artist Miriam Elia--a tribute to and a parody of the much-loved British Ladybird early learning children's books of the 1960s--anyone can learn about contemporary art and understand many of its key themes. Join John and Susan on their exciting journey through the art exhibition, where, with Mummy's help, they will discover the real meaning of all the contemporary artworks, from empty rooms to vagina paintings or giant inflatable dogs.
The 2014 limited edition of We Go to the Gallery was threatened with a lawsuit by Penguin UK (owners of the Ladybird imprint), which was withdrawn following a recent change in UK copyright law allowing for parody and satire.
“We go to the gallery"是一本關於參關於如何參觀展覽的書。這本只有四十多頁的書將一位媽媽帶她的子女參觀展覽時所遇到的情景描述,這些情境不單只小朋友會問,相信我們心裏亦會有疑惑。
“Is the art pretty? says Susan.
"No," says Mummy, "Pretty is not important."
藝術不一定只是是追求「美」,反而是要了解藝術家想表達的意思。這本書看着都很有共鳴,這些小孩問媽媽的問題不就是我們對藝術品的疑惑嗎?
這是一本很好的藝術教育書籍,除了用簡單易明的英語外,每頁都有得學生字,還有vintage的插圖。這個系列還有幾本書,你有興趣睇嗎?
