Through the Seasons with Eric Carle
In the Abu Dhabi Cultural Foundation a new exhibition opened its doors. For the first time in the region, the work of world-renowned illustrator and young children’s book author Eric Carle is being celebrated in an exhibition, Through the Seasons with Eric Carle, which showcases the wonders of nature throughout the year.
With more than 70 books to his name including the famous The Very Hungry Caterpillar, this exhibition looks at Carle’s brilliant imagery of the seasons, from hibernating bears in winter and hatching chicks in spring to colourful flowers in summer and ripe apple trees in the fall. Curated by Reem AlHashimi, the show features original artworks – including Carle’s painted tissue-paper collages from nine classic picture books – as well as unpublished work. Through the Seasons with Eric Carle is organized by The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, Amherst, Massachusetts, United States.
At the Abu Dhabi Cultural Foundation, Hypsos Middle East has managed and executed all aspects of this exhibition comprehensively. Their responsibilities encompass exhibition graphics, set construction, audiovisual equipment, museum showcases, electrical and security systems, museum lighting, and climate control.
