‘Journeys of the Imagination’ is the title of John Burningham’s exhibition at The London Transport Museum which features his travel posters.
“London Transport Museum is hosting a celebration of the work of one of Britain’s most successful and best loved illustrators – John Burningham. His career was kick started with a poster commission from London Transport in 1960 although he later found fame as a celebrated children’s book author and illustrator. He has written over 60 illustrated books, for which he has received many honours including two Kate Greenaway medals.
The Museum’s celebratory events include a display of his travel posters, October family fun half term workshops, an ‘in-conversation’ evening with John Burningham and a special book signing afternoon. A new Flickr photographic competition, inspired by Burningham’s new poster artwork Children’s London, will run until 1 December 2011.”
The show is on until Thursday 1st December.
