Sorry guys, but the bombardment of news last week caused us to totally drop the ball on two WTWTA-themed exhibitions in NYC. The good news is that both will be running through November. The Sendak in SoHo opened last week at the Animazing Gallery and features over 200 illustrations, etchings, and other artwork by Maurice Sendak (some are even for sale if you’ve got deep coffers). As if that wasn’t enough Sendak for New Yorkers (it never is), the Morgan Library & Museum is displaying original drawings and manuscript pages from WTWTA to celebrate the release of the film. The materials are on loan from the Rosenbach Museum, which we talked about last week. If you live in New York there’s really no excuse not to forgo either of these once-in-a-lifetime exhibitions.
