A master of the American picture book ("The Lion & The Mouse," "John Henry," "The Patchwork Quilt," et.al), Jerry Pinkney's unforgettable visual narratives reflect deeply felt personal and cultural themes, bearing witness to the African-American experience, the wonders of classic literature, and the wisdom in well-loved folk tales. A belief in the ability of images to speak about and to humanity is at this Caldecott-winning illustrator's core. <p><a href="http://artbabble.org/video/nrm/witness-art-jerry-pinkney" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://artbabble.org/video/nrm/witness-art-jerry-pinkney#comments American Art Illustration Jerry Pinkney Painting storytelling Stories Norman Rockwell Museum http://artbabble.org/sites/default/files/bvideos/41/411a116590749215/poster-image-06.jpg 411a116590749215 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 13:59:18 +0000 Jeremy C. 8124 at http://artbabble.org
