Dr. SeussThe Joyous Leaping of Uncanned Salmon
Dr. Seuss was living and working in New York City as an editorial cartoonist in the 1930s when Surrealism crashed onto the art scene in the United States. Being a part of that explosive time had a profound impact on Ted's artistic ideas and development. His fascination with both the Surrealist and Dada movements becomes ingeniously clear in wry artworks such as The Joyous Leaping of Uncanned Salmon, Fooling Nobody, and I Dreamed I Was the Doorman at the Hotel Del Coronado. |
