Title
The Sneetches 50th Anniversary
Description

Medium: Serigraph on Coventry rag paper, estate signed

Good To Know: Never framed, stored flat in humidity controlled art storage facility, accompanied by CoA (Certificate of Authenticity).

Arty-Fact: Adapted posthumously from the illustration for the 1961 book, The Sneetches and Other Stories.

The brilliant tale of The Sneetches, some with stars on their bellies and some without, tackles the persistently complex issue of tolerance and racial prejudice, and ingeniously imparts lessons on social justice and the senselessness of discrimination. The Sneetches book is widely used today as a teaching aid to instill a caring sense of fairness and equality for all.

Dr. Seuss

Not only did he tell fantastical tales of far-away places but he also gave us a unique visual language that carried his stories to new heights of artistic expression. Surrealism provided the foundation from which he built his career, but like a launch pad sitting idle just before liftoff, surrealism was soon to be engulfed in the flames of ridiculous fun and its launch tower thrown to the ground with each new editorial cartoon, magazine cover, painting, or children’s book.
