Description: Prepárese para desaprender todo lo que creía saber sobre la Capilla Sixtina y las obras maestras de Miguel Ángel. Este libro procurará desplazar siglos de prejuicio, censura e ignorancia de uno de los tesoros del arte más famosos y queridos del mundo. Hace quinientos años Miguel Ángel comenzó una pintura que se convirtió en una de las piezas de arte más famosas del mundo: el cielorraso de la Capilla Sixtina. Todos los años, millones de personas se acercan a ver el cielorraso Sixtino de Miguel Ángel, el fresco más grande del mundo en la más sagrada de las capillas cristianas; sin embargo, no hay una sola imagen cristiana en esta vasta, magnífica obra de arte. Los secretos de la Capilla Sixtina cuenta la fascinante historia de cómo Miguel Ángel ocultó mensajes de hermandad, tolerancia y de libre pensamiento en su pintura para alentar a los "compañeros de viaje" a que desafiaran a la represiva Iglesia Católica Romana de la época. Blech y Doliner revelan lo que Miguel Ángel realmente quiso expresar en las representaciones angelicales que de manera brillante se mofaban de su mecenas papal, cómo logró escabullir herejías no ortodoxas en sus representaciones ostensiblemente pías, y cómo fue capaz de cumplir la ambición de su vida de tender un puente entre la sabiduría de la ciencia y las constricciones de la fe. Los secretos de la Capilla Sixtina, desentierra secretos que han permanecido escondidos y a la vista por siglos.

Description: Mexico’s Day of the Dead fascinates U.S readers, whether for its joyful celebration of an unusual tradition or because it simply feels like home. San Vicente lets children join the celebration as they watch the skeletons rock, rattle, and roll those long old bones as they get ready for the biggest event of their social calendar. A short and fun essay, directed toward young readers, will explain this important Mexican holiday. The works of Mexico City artist Luis San Vicente have been exhibited in Mexico, Venezuela, Europe, and the United States. He has won UNESCO’s prestigious NOMA Encouragement Concours Prize for Illustration, and UNESCO honored his work (1997, 1998, and 1999) in their prestigious Youth and Children’s Catalog of Illustrations.
