FROM MICKEY MOUSE TO ANDY WARHOL

For several decades children’s literature has been associated with the creations of countless visual artists. For some (such as Andy Warhol) the image, the design and the shape of children’s books and cartoon books are sources of inspiration for the composition of new works. Others (such as Dieter Roth) create books whose concept appeals to the young. This exhibition includes several publications that show various forms of manipulation or creation of originals as well as children’s books that draw our attention to contemporary art (Hergé – Tintin).
