A wonderful, immersive experience awaits this winter at the Columbus Museum of Art.
The CMA, in partnership with The Maurice Sendak Foundation, is presenting the first major retrospective of Maurice Sendak’s work since his death in 2012. The exhibition, on view until March 5, features over 150 sketches, storyboards, and paintings from the foundation’s collection.
Visitors will have the opportunity to view original artwork from Sendak’s most famous books, such as Where the Wild Things Are, In the Night Kitchen, and Outside Over There. Additionally, the exhibition will showcase Sendak’s work for other celebrated publications, such as The Bat-Poet by Randall Jarrell and Zlateh the Goat by Isaac Bashevis Singer, as well as designs for his opera, theater, film, and television productions.
An international tour is planned following the exhibition in Columbus. Please note, admission to this exhibition will require an additional fee. More information is available here.
