This past week I was invited by The Public Library of Cincinnati to make a presentation to open their exhibit of pop-up books: Wonderful World of Pop-ups: From the Collection of Carolyn S. Hughes. They have 115 books on display and it is just a marvelous exhibition that should delight and entertain all pop-up enthusiasts! The show runs through June 27. Below are some photos of the exhibition.
Also, opening June 14 in Washington, D.C., is “Fold, Pull, Pop and Turn”, an exhibition of the pop-up book collection of the Smithsonian Museum of American History. In addition to having several books included in the show, Chuck Fischer and I were honored to be asked to be featured in a short video demonstrating the collaborative process of creating our pop-up books. In the video we will demonstrate how we worked back and forth to create the Gabriel Annunciation pop up in last fall’s release, Angels. In addition, Chuck and I created a pop-up American Eagle that visitors to the exhibition can take home and build themselves. We will also post this as a download on our websites soon for those who can’t make it to Washington this year. The show will run through October 2011. Click on images below for a larger view.
