If you haven’t had a chance to see Lorenzo Petrantoni’s exhibit in Dumbo you have until this Saturday. And if you miss it, we’ll be featuring Lorenzo in the next issue of Creative Quarterly, Issue 28. And you’ll want to take a look at this wonderful short film on how Lorenzo puts together his collages.

Far Out Isn't Far Enough: The Tomi Ungerer Story

Tomi Ungerer rose to prominence in the late 1950s as the creator of acclaimed children’s books—”I dare say, no one was as original,” Maurice Sendak once ventured.

Ungerer’s creativity also encompassed iconic 60s protest posters and lavish books of erotica; but when his work was banned, he risked fading into obscurity. This film performs a laudable act of rediscovery by capturing his incredible personality on camera and bringing his artwork to life through enchanting animated sequences.

Check out his site for the trailer.
