The mice are captivated by Matisse and the cats are exploring the Surrealists' room ... what else is going on in the gallery?
This quirky and creative search-and-find book takes children, room by room, through a wonderfully illustrated gallery, where an array of animals are enjoying everything from Impressionism and Surrealism to Pop Art and Cubism. Each room is filled with strange and astonishing works of art, with things for children to spot and information that introduces artists and art movements. There's a cat in a bowler hat, a cheesy Matisse, and plenty more to capture children's imaginations as they enter the gallery for the first taste of the beautiful world of art. Perfect for children aged 6 and up.

Paul Klee defined himself as a " painter poet" , and his art
perfectly reflects that phrase. He was interested in colour, and
formed friendships with other artists also exploring colour, such
as Kandinsky, Picasso and Braque. His experimentation with
backgrounds, shapes, colour, sign and pictograms, as well as with
light and colour, are all portrayed in his work. This book contains
six of his most famous paintings and, with over 75 large-sized
stickers, it allows both children and adults to experiment
themselves, placing the re-usable stickers on different paintings
to see how small - and large - changes, completely change a work of
art. Sylvie Delpech studied history of art and worked in imaging
technology for television, before returning to Paris, where she
works in photography and on children' s books.
