SUMMARY:Bad Kitty Does Not Like Art Museums
DESCRIPTION:Art museums are great! You can see many wonderful things\, the curator exclaimed. \nBad Kitty does not agree. Her dislike of them remained. \nCould a visit change her mind? Would that do? \nDo you want to see another’s point of view? \nEach has a story\, and so do you. \nFor a moment Bad Kitty thought: Okay\, Okay\, but I still don’t see the hullabaloo. \nGoing inside\, the AC was on. So far\, this is pretty cool. \nHer temperament took a break: The paintings are nice\, but that is something I could make. \nInside you’re an artist! The docent explained: \nJuxtapose yourself with the art you see. You can make it\, but so can she. \nKitty thought it over\, how could that be? Seeing something new\, maybe that is the key? \nLots of pieces to view! Something old\, something blue\, and something with a kangaroo! \nMuch to see! So much to learn! What else could we discern? The art from… \nNick Bruel would be cool! \nOpen the doors to the LCVA to see his art. \nPurrfect stories and lessons from the heart. \nQuestions arise and stories unfold\, \nReading his books there is much to behold. \nSuper great pictures worth a Fabergé! \nThank you\, Bad Kitty\, for visiting today. \nUnderstanding your dismay is okay! A good change is underway\, maybe next time we’ll try the ballet? \nVisual art can mend\, pretend\, blend\, defend\, and transcend. \nWould you recommend to a friend? \nXylophone! \nYes! Oh\, that’s wonderful news. \nZoom on over\, and see some new views. \n  \n  \nBad Kitty Does Not Like Art Museums highlights works of art from author and illustrator Nick Bruel. For over twenty years\, his stories have connected with children and adults alike. His whimsical narratives teach valuable life lessons through humor and the curious Bad Kitty. \nThough she wasn’t always a bad cat\, she just didn’t want to eat asparagus\, horseradish\, spinach\, or zucchini. She wanted an assortment of anchovies\, hippo hamburgers\, rhino ravioli\, or shark sushi. She may not have been as patient as she should have been\, but that’s okay. She is learning – she is just a little kitty. \nAnd Bad Kitty grows up\, just like we do. She goes on vacation\, takes a test\, gets a bath\, gets a phone\, and even runs for president. These stories teach that when times get tough\, we figure out ways to persevere and succeed\, or how to handle disappointment. \nBad Kitty Does Not Like Art Museums is an invitation to find your own growth\, revisit something you don’t like\, and have some laughs. The LCVA\, in conjunction with the Virginia Children’s Book Festival\, asks that you don’t claw the curtains\, overturn litter boxes\, or ruin any rugs. \nThis exhibition is the eight iteration of the LCVA’s annual Arts and Letters exhibition series showcasing the best in the art of children’s literature\, which is proudly presented in conjunction with the Virginia Children’s Book Festival. \n  \n \nImage Credit: \nNick Bruel\nBad Kitty Does Not Like Art Museums\n2024 \nInk\, watercolor\, and gouache on multimedia paper.\n7″x5 1/8″\nCourtesy of the artist
