Reviews
Doro Globus and Rose Blake take a highly complex process, often years in the making, to explore the many details that make up an exhibition. The images and the text perfectly complement each other, allowing young people (and old!) to grasp the full scope of creating an exhibition. After decades of working in a museum, I can attest to the gift that this book is. It will inspire children of all ages as they see the behind-the-scenes activities of assembling such an accomplishment!, I wish I'd had this book when I was a kid! I always wanted my art to be in a big museum one day but, growing up in a small town, that just seemed impossible. Making a Great Exhibition is a beautifully illustrated behind-the-scenes peek at exactly how art makes its way from an artist's mind to the big white walls of a fancy gallery. Turns out, there are a lot of people, with some very cool jobs, who make the magic happen--and any book that shows kids (and parents!) they can grow up to have a career in the arts is okay by me!, I absolutely love it! I was a big fan of Richard Scarry's What Do People Do All Day --I must have read it 1000 times to my son when he was little. This seems to take some of that wonderful spirit, and has just as much charm. Right now, when there are so many obstacles being thrown in the way of young people getting involved in the arts, this book could not be more timely. It looks like just the enabling, invitation into the world of art that might make a real difference. Bravo! It would be great to see one in every primary school in the country., Making a Great Exhibition is a book that every art-loving kid (and parent) will want to have at home. The beautiful illustrations transform the people who work in a museum into superheroes, who will inspire the next generation of creatives. With tons of little details, the book offers endless things for kids to look at and learn, meaning that the book will grow along with them.
Synopsis
"It never occurred to me while growing up that art is an industry involving countless jobs, so if this book helps shed light to just one kid that it is a viable career option, then it has done its job, as art is indescribably important!" --Oliver Jeffers, Artist and Illustrator "This book so beautifully explains to kids what goes into making an art exhibition. It's not just about an artist hanging something on a wall for people to see: it's so much more lively, layered, and community-driven. Even I learned a ton about what truly goes into a fantastic art show!" --Joy Cho, Author and Founder of Oh Joy! "I wish I'd had this book when I was a kid! I always wanted my art to be in a big museum one day but, growing up in a small town, that just seemed impossible.

Turns out, there are a lot of people, with some very cool jobs, who make the magic happen--and any book that shows kids (and parents!) they can grow up to have a career in the arts is okay by me!" --Danielle Krysa, The Jealous Curator An exciting insight into the workings of artists and museums, Making a Great Exhibition is a colorful and playful introduction geared to children ages 3-7 How does an artist make a sculpture or a painting? What tools do they use? What happens to the artwork next? This fun, inside look at the life of an artwork shows the journey of two artists' work from studio to exhibition. Stopping along the way we meet colorful characters--curators, photographers, shippers, museum visitors, and more! Both illustrator and author were raised in the art world, spending their time in studios, doing homework in museum offices, and going to special openings. They have teamed up to share their experiences and love for this often mysterious world to a young audience. London-based illustrator Rose Blake is best known for her work in A History of Pictures for Children , by David Hockney and Martin Gayford, which has been a worldwide success. Author Doro Globus brings her love for the arts and kids together with this fun journey., "It never occurred to me while growing up that art is an industry involving countless jobs, so if this book helps shed light to just one kid that it is a viable career option, then it has done its job, as art is indescribably important!" -Oliver Jeffers, Artist and Illustrator "This book so beautifully explains to kids what goes into making an art exhibition.
