Maira Kalman on democracy at NY Times blog


sponsored

I want to recommend Maira Kalman‘s new blog post about democracy, today at the NY Times on her blog.  It goes from history lesson to civics lesson and is, like all her work, a great shaggy dog story that involves her as whimsical-optimist observer.  And here’s some news about Kalman.  Last time I was at ICA I ran into Curator Ingrid Schaffner and asked her what she was working on — A Maira Kalman show!!!  It’ll be in 2010 in the upstairs galleries and will include Kalman’s story-drawings as well as some of her collections (she’s a renowned collector of “stuff” from rubber bands to photos of people she follows on the street).  Can’t wait!

Maira Kalman, from her blog post today at the NY Times.
