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 Secrets of the Deep presents not only these unpublished estate paintings, but also an array of little-known works spanning the twentieth century, and several rare findings from public and private collections – many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.

During the 1970s, Chicago founded the first feminist art program in the United States at California State University, Fresno (formerly Fresno State College) which acted as a catalyst for feminist art and art education during the 1970s. Her inclusion in hundreds of publications in various areas of the world showcases her influence in the worldwide art community. Additionally, many of her books have been published in other countries, making her work more accessible to international readers. Chicago's work incorporates a variety of artistic skills, such as needlework, counterbalanced with skills such as welding and pyrotechnics. Chicago's most well known work is The Dinner Party, which is permanently installed in the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum. The Dinner Party celebrates the accomplishments of women throughout history and is widely regarded as the first epic feminist artwork. Other notable art projects by Chicago include International Honor Quilt, Birth Project, Powerplay, and The Holocaust Project. She is represented by Jessica Silverman...
