So we have have here a celebration of Mr Ingpen's work focusing on many of the works I also own - however there are still plenty of material I have never seen though often referred to. What is more is you have a gentle and honest story of how these images came about from the artist himself. The book is lavishly published with what I feel is the right balance between word and picture. Feb 19, Lloyd Downey rated it it was amazing. I am still in awe of Robert Wonderlands: The Illustration Art of Robert Ingpen artistic talent. But not only his art: also his productivity, his research and his fidelity to detail. I guess, it was being exposed to such illustrations in children's books as a child that makes me like his work so much today. I just had a look at the cost of some of his illustrations that are for sale at auction and they seem to be selling for u I am still in awe of Robert Ingpen's artistic talent. Admittedlythese are not the original Wonderlands: The Illustration Art of Robert Ingpen from his published books. There is quite a nice text accompanying the various illustrations and one gets a small insight into the way that Ingpen works. I like his flat-plan layout page. But I really would have liked to see more pictures of Ingpen himself at work and heard more from him about his technique. He mentions watercolour and tempera but I'm not sure if he has used crayon or oils with some of his works. Certainly, with his teddy bear picture Wonderlands: The Illustration Art of Robert Ingpen has used pencil and pastel. So he is obviously adept with a range of materials. And I must say, that I was amused to see in his story of the Poppycock that he refers to his characters as Hairy Peruvians. I wonder if it is because as he says he saw dolls like this in a museum in Peru I seem to remember some illustrations of sub-clover varieties I think there were issues with high oestrogen content of some of these clovers. The book is beautifully put together Five stars from me. Jul 14, Michael Reilly rated it really liked it Shelves: reviews.

  • Nagroda Im. H. Ch. Andersena Nagroda
    Nagroda im. H. Ch. Andersena Nagroda za wybitne zasługi dla literatury dla dzieci i młodzieży Co dwa lata IBBY przyznaje autorom i ilustratorom książek dziecięcych swoje najwyższe wyróżnienie – Nagrodę im. Hansa Christiana Andersena. Otrzymują ją osoby żyjące, których twórczość jest bardzo ważna dla literatury dziecięcej. Nagroda ta, często nazywana „Małym Noblem”, to najważniejsze międzynarodowe odznaczenie, przyznawane za twórczość dla dzieci. Patronem nagrody jest Jej Wysokość, Małgorzata II, Królowa Danii. Nominacje do tej prestiżowej nagrody zgłaszane są przez narodowe sekcje, a wyboru laureatów dokonuje międzynarodowe jury, w którego skład wchodzą badacze i znawcy literatury dziecięcej. Nagrodę im. H. Ch. Andersena zaczęto przyznawać w 1956 roku, w kategorii Autor, a pierwszy ilustrator otrzymał ją dziesięć lat później. Na nagrodę składają się: złoty medal i dyplom, wręczane na uroczystej ceremonii, podczas Kongresu IBBY. Z okazji przyznania nagrody ukazuje się zawsze specjalny numer czasopisma „Bookbird”, w którym zamieszczane są nazwiska nominowanych, a także sprawozdanie z obrad Jury. Do tej pory żaden polski pisarz nie otrzymał tego odznaczenia, jednak polskie nazwisko widnieje na liście nagrodzonych. W 1982 roku bowiem Małego Nobla otrzymał wybitny polski grafik i ilustrator Zbigniew Rychlicki. Nagroda im. H. Ch. Andersena w 2022 r. Kolejnych zwycięzców nagrody im. Hansa Christiana Andersena poznamy wiosną 2022 podczas targów w Bolonii. Na długiej liście nominowanych, na której jest aż 66 nazwisk z 33 krajów – 33 pisarzy i 33 ilustratorów znaleźli się Marcin Szczygielski oraz Iwona Chmielewska. MARCIN SZCZYGIELSKI Marcin Szczygielski jest znanym polskim pisarzem, dziennikarzem i grafikiem. Jego prace były publikowane m.in. w Nowej Fantastyce czy Newsweeku, a jako dziennikarz swoją karierę związał również z tygodnikiem Wprost oraz miesięcznikiem Moje mieszkanie, którego był redaktorem naczelnym.

  • The Development of Fantasy Illustration in Australian Children's Literature
    The University of Tasmania "THE SHADOW LINE BETWEEN REALITY AND FANTASY": THE DEVELOPMENT OF FANTASY ILLUSTRATION IN AUSTRALIAN CHILDREN'S LITERATURE A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Degree for Master of Education. Centre of Education by Irene Theresa Gray University of Tasmania December 1985. Acknowledgments I wish to thank the following persons for assistance in the presentation of this dissertation: - Mr. Hugo McCann, Centre for Education, University of Tasmania for his encouragement, time, assistance and critical readership of this document. Mr. Peter Johnston, librarian and colleague who kindly spent time in the word processing and typing stage. Finally my husband, Andrew whose encouragement and support ensured its completion. (i) ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to show that accompanying a development of book production and printing techniques in Australia, there has been a development in fantasy illustration in Australian children's literature. This study has identified the period of Australian Children's Book Awards between 1945 - 1983 as its focus, because it encompassed the most prolific growth of fantasy-inspired, illustrated literature in Australia and • world-wide. The work of each illustrator selected for study either in storybook or picture book, is examined in the light of theatrical and artistic codes, illustrative traditions such as illusion and decoration, in terms of the relationships between text and illustration and the view of childhood and child readership. This study. has also used overseas literature as "benchmarks" for the criteria in examining these Australian works. This study shows that there has been a development in the way illustrators have dealt with the landscape, flora and fauna, people, Aboriginal mythology and the evocation and portrayal of Secondary Worlds.

NEWSLETTER No 21 May, 2014 President’s Letter Dear members and supporters of IBBY Australia Congratulations on some great celebrations of International Children’s Book Day this year. Thank you to all who attended, contributed to the programs, and shared the enthusiasm. To Robyn Sheahan-Bright and Bettina Nissen for their groundbreaking Gladstone events. To Jenni Woodroffe and the WA IBBY committee, helped by Louis Blackwell, for the wonderful quiz night—those who attended are already clamouring for a repeat! And to those who gathered for An Afternoon with Robert Ingpen, a unique chance to meet and hear from Australia’s only living recipient of a Hans Christian Andersen award. The Strathfield event served as a national get-together: Jenni travelled from Perth, Robyn from Gladstone, Belle Alderman from Canberra, and Albert Ullin from Melbourne, as well as many people from across Sydney and from rural NSW. IBBY crosses boundaries within Australia as well as internationally. I am off to Canberra this week for the CBCA National Conference, and look forward to meeting up with IBBY members there. Australian HCA nominees will feature on the program, with two as keynote speakers—Jackie French and Nadia Wheatley; with the launch of A Bird in the Hand, the retrospective exhibition of Bob Graham’s work; and with Robert Ingpen’s session about his new book. National committee member, Karen Jameyson, will present for NSW School Magazine.

  • Hans Christian Andersen Awards Are the Highest International Distinction in Children’S Literature
    HANS CH RISTIAN A NDERSEN A WARDS Christine E. King, Iowa State University The Hans Christian Andersen Awards are the highest international distinction in children’s literature. They are given every other year to a living author and illustrator whose outstanding body of work is judged to have made a lasting contribution to literature for children and young people. The first three awards were made to authors for single works. The author’s award has been given since 1956 and the illustrator’s since 1966. They are presented by the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY). They have become the “Little Nobel Prize,” and their prestige has grown over the years. Selecting the award win- ners is considered by many to be IBBY’s most important activity. The nominations are made by the National Sections of IBBY, and the recipients are selected by a distinguished international jury of children’s literature specialists. The IBBY emphasizes that the Hans Christian Andersen Awards are not intended to be a national award, but an outstanding international award for chil- dren’s literature. A great effort is made to encourage the submission of candidates from all over the world, and a jury of ten experts is also selected from around the world in order to encourage a diversity of outlook and opinion. The award consists of a gold medal bearing the portrait of Hans Christian Andersen and a diploma and is presented at the opening ceremony of the IBBY Congress. The IBBY’s refereed journal Bookbird has a special Andersen Awards issue which presents all the nominees and documents the selection process.
