From Hervé Tullet, the creator of the New York Times bestseller Press Here, Museum in a Book invites young and old to unleash their creativity. This book, which is both an endlessly playful tabletop exhibition and a practical guide for everyone to create their own art, is a physical kaleidoscope of imagination. Using only his favorite tools (four bold colors, a paintbrush, sheets of paper, and a pair of scissors) and applying some simple principles and directions from his revolutionary art-making project, The Ideal Exhibition, Hervé provides simple instructions for creating art that can be used to fill a huge space... or squeeze into a matchbox. But the best expression of Hervé's prodigious creativity is this book itself: an interactive marvel that readers will arrange and rearrange into a dazzling display of shapes, colors, and patterns. INTERACTIVE PLAY: fold, unfold, arrange and rearrange, insert, lift, and much more to create a deeply satisfying activity that nurtures the imagination. This compact and engaging book brings Hervé's art into every home. BESTSELLING CREATOR: Hervé Tullet is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Press Here, Mix It Up, and over eighty books that have been translated into dozens of languages. The creator of the innovative do-it-yourself Ideal Exhibition, Hervé has presented his technique and art in workshops, museums, and videos on six continents. AMAZING PACKAGE: An intriguing die-cut cover and a semi-hidden neon spiral binding entice readers to open this book and ensure it stands firmly. Unfolding into a magical 360˚ 3D experience, it expands to almost five feet wide. An invaluable gift of play, imagination, and potential that is an object of art in itself, Museum in a Book incites and encourages all its readers to explore and express their own artistic gifts. A SENSORY EXPERIENCE FOR ALL AGES: Eye-catching neon colors, brilliant patterns, and tons of tactile elements make this book a visual treat for artists of all ages! Once arranged (and rearranged), it will sit comfortably on a bookshelf or can be safely displayed. It encourages readers to look, reflect, play... and create!
