This weekend we went to the Reina Sofia. I was hoping to see the Miroslaw Balka exhibit, but it turns out it was in Burgos, so that was a little disappointing. Of course we enjoyed the museum anyways, as we always do. And then as a bonus, in the gift shop we discovered this wonderful book:
Some of you may be familiar with Shaun Tan's Tales from Outer Suburbia, which was one of the NY Times Best Illustrated Children's Books of 2009. I always check that list for christmas presents, and remember that book, but I hadn't seen any of his other work. Now I'm a huge fan. Children's books? Don't be fooled, these are for all of us.
More amazing illustrations after the jump...
