By Jean Sousa
Maintaining the central truth that exciting works of art are rich in
great stories, this book draws inspiration from an exhibit that focused
on six diverse objects from the Art Institute’s permanent collection.
The book features the stories of these artworks, as well as an engaging
account of how a museum staff, an architect, and a children’s art team
worked together to create the exhibition. The full-color plates and
lively text will delight children and parents planning their visits to
the museum.
