Love this book.

“Out of the Shadows” by Fiona Robinson is a fantastic about Lotte Reineger, who created the first feature length animated film. It’s visually arresting and a brilliant story full of science and art.

I genuinely can’t praise these of famous artists (Kandinsky/Van Gogh/Chagall/Monet) enough. Great text coupled with vibrant art that reflects the artists style means they are all mini-masterpieces. and Mary Grandpre bring the art to life.

enslaved poet George Moses Horton found freedom in words and protested injustice with his published poetry. His story proves that art and self-expression know no bounds, even in the darkest times. https://t.co/bBwGl8m2HI
