Which picture book from the Bologna Illustration Fair is better
Recently, my circle of friends has been flooded with the news that the illustrations from the Bologna Children's Book Festival have come to China.
Every friend who lives in Beijing and Lu vows to take their children to receive "artistic influence."
Whenever this happens, someone like me, who lives on a third-tier island, will pout behind the screen and say to himself: "Huh! What a ghost of artistic influence." !”
Although I know that my five-and-a-half-year-old child must be fascinated by such an art exhibition, I still can’t help but think about how much it would cost to take him and myself to be “artistic”. money. This is the little idea of ??a mother like me who lives within her means.
The Bologna International Children's Book Fair is the largest children's book fair in the world. Since its inception in 1964, it has been held for 53 times.
At the 3rd Bologna Children's Book Fair in 1967, the Bologna Illustration Award was founded and an illustration exhibition was held at the same time. Based on the criteria of "creativity, educational value and artistic design", awards were given to the winning illustrators. In each edition, thousands of artists from dozens of countries around the world provide thousands of works for the exhibition, representing the international level and direction of the world's children's book illustrations.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Bologna Illustration Exhibition. Its long history makes it as extraordinary as the Children’s Book Fair
It is an important illustration cooperation and exchange platform that has nurtured the world As the core creator of children's book publishing, it is also known as the "Oscar of illustrations". The Bologna Illustration Exhibition is not only a source of children's book publishing, but also represents the world's benchmark for picture book creation.
We are familiar with Quentin Blake, Pieterse, Innocenti, Altan, and Arnault. Masters of world-class illustrations such as Ballester are all winners of this award.
In the circle of friends of the organizer of the Illustration Exhibition, I saw the news that a single album will be released for this exhibition. I bought it immediately and prepared it for myself and Sanwu.
This book is a compilation of illustration works selected for the 2015 Bologna Illustration Exhibition, including more than 300 illustrations by more than 70 illustrators. The authors are all accomplished illustration artists. Each work has unique creativity, skills and artistic appeal, representing the development trend and artistic level of international illustration art. The book introduction says, "This will provide a great opportunity for Chinese publishers and illustrators Artists, illustration art lovers, children’s art educators, etc. bring the world’s top artistic vision and aesthetic enjoyment.”
The picture album is still on the way, and it is difficult for different families to judge the meaning of a picture album. But I think there will always be people like me who want to see more good, gentle and childlike paintings. Therefore, I put this picture album that is far away and may not meet us here.
I hope it and you who need it are no longer alone.
PS again: Although I said “I don’t know if anyone will buy it”, I still shyly asked the event organizer for it. The organizer of the event appreciated our sincerity and agreed to send a set of postcards from the Bologna Illustration Exhibition, which included the autograph of our favorite Chinese organizer of the Bologna Illustration Exhibition, children’s book publisher Yan Xiaoli.
These are six exclusive postcards, so beautiful, right? . . .

Hand-drawn album cover design methods:
1. Text and image arrangement: Insert photographic images that match the content or brand tone into the cover to highlight the theme. This not only quickly delivers promotional information, but also achieves a strong visual effect. If only one picture is used, the usual approach is to make the picture occupy a larger space and increase the layout ratio. Most of the pictures are displayed in bleed form or with the base image removed.
2. Text and graphic arrangement: Adding graphic design to the cover can enhance the artistic and formal sense of the picture. For example, some topics cannot be conveyed through concrete pictures, so abstract graphics can be designed to express them. Use graphics as the main body of the cover to make the design more connotative and detailed. It should be noted that graphics must be related to the design theme and creative, otherwise it will be superfluous.
