With a desire to give customers and collectors access to such artists as Dr. Seuss, Mo Willems, Marc Brown, Maurice Sendak, EB Lewis, Chris Raschka, Jules Feiffer and many other celebrated children’s book artists, Storyopolis Art and R. Michelson Galleries are proud to announce a partnership to showcase the nation’s top children’s book illustrators and artists at http://www.StoryopolisArt.com.
A Brooklyn native, Richard Michelson is a prizewinning poet and children’s book author who settled in Northampton, Massachusetts 30 years ago. R. Michelson Galleries is the home to some of the finest illustrators and artists. Several of the artists he represents are nationally known and many more have helped turn his into a ‘destination gallery’.
Richard Michelson, owner of R. Michelson Galleries explains, “I am partnering up with Storyopolis Art because Matthew and Kristine Abramowitz have been passionate supporters of illustration art for many years, and their enthusiasm and knowledge of the field has helped introduce collectors and art-lovers to a wide array of the greatest talents working today.”
Storyopolis Art, with its unique and limited collection, is home to an amazingly diverse group of world-renowned artists. The mission of Storyopolis has always been to feed the minds of our youth through showcasing the art & novels of the imaginative artists they represent. Storyopolis is best known for its Los Angeles/Hollywood connections and collections.
“Over the years, Richard and I have developed a very strong relationship.” shares Storyopolis Art Co-Owner Matthew Abramowitz. “There has always been a desire to work together. Given our mission to offer our customers the best-illustrated art and given Michelson’s amazing collection, it is a great honor to collaborate.”
