In the last few decades, Brazilian children’s literature has undergone great development. One of its most creative and multi-faceted representatives is the internationally known illustrator and author Roger Mello. In 2010, Mello was the first Brazilian illustrator to be named a finalist for the renowned Hans Christian Andersen Award. He was awarded with this important prize in March 2014!
We are proud to see our exhibition travelling so successfully around the world. Right now it can be seen at the notable Chihiro Art Museum Azumino in Japan and it will move on to Nami Island in South Korea! By the way: The travelling exhibition is based on Roger Mello’s first single exhibtion in Europe – which was shown in our premisses in 2012!
