Dr. Seuss (Theodore Geisel)
Dr. Seuss, Secrets of the Deep Deluxe Book

About the Item

Secrets of the Deep: The Lost, Forgotten, and Hidden Works of Theodor Seuss Geisel Deluxe book with cloth-bound hardcover and a slipcase presentation Features more than 300 artworks Secrets of the Deep: The Lost, Forgotten, and Hidden Works of Theodor Seuss Geisel is a deluxe volume comprising the most comprehensive survey of Dr. Seuss’s nearly seventy-year artistic legacy. Secrets of the Deep presents not only these unpublished estate paintings, but also an array of little-known works spanning the twentieth century, and several rare findings from public and private collections – many being published here for the first time. DR. SEUSS (Theodor Seuss Geisel) Theodor "Ted" Seuss Geisel, most known by his pen name, Dr. Seuss, would often take different artistic genres and portray them in his inimitable style. Consider, for instance, the Cubism of The Rather Odd Myopic Woman, the Abstraction of The Joyous Leaping of Uncanned Salmon, and the Surrealism of Surly Cat Being Ejected. In a work such as Worm Burning Bright in the Forest in the Night, he even re-interpreted Pollock's drip paintings of the 1960s. An avid artistic and cultural sponge, it’s possible that Geisel, while on his annual New York trip to Random House, saw MoMA’s 1967 comprehensive Pollock exhibition. In ways such as this it is evident Dr. Seuss worked with an artistic tact that was more often than not surprisingly nuanced.
