Description: "Graphic but mystical, vibrant yet enigmatic, the work of American artist Eyvind Earle is a treasure trove of subtle and shimmering contradictions. From fanciful backgrounds for Disney classics such as Sleeping Beauty to bold experiments in multimedia art, from ambitious commercial animations to lush and otherworldly oil landscapes, Earle's oeuvre never fails to please the eye and engage the imagination. And here, collected in Awaking Beauty--the official catalog for the 2017 Walt Disney Family Museum exhibition of the same name--is a definitive exploration of his life's full work."--
Notes: Published in conjunction with the retrospective exhibition Awaking Beauty : the Art of Eyvind Earle, May 18, 2017-January 8, 2018, the Walt Disney Family Museum, San Francisco, California.
