Masterpieces of Imaginative Illustration

Last night an art museum in Connecticut played host to "trolls, nymphs, and mermaids, plus cosmic warriors on alien planets."

The Stamford Art Museum and and Nature Center opened their exhibition called "Illustrations of Imaginative Literature: Masterpieces of American and European Science Fiction," with original artwork borrowed from the Korshak Collection.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
by Arthur Rackham, 1907

The show includes some of the best examples by Arthur Rackham, Frank Frazetta, Jose Segrelles, Willy Pogany, Sir William Russell Flint, Gustav Tenggren, Edmund Dulac, Roy Krenkel, William Heath Robinson, Fortunino Matania, Brian Froud, Heinrich Kley, and Frank R. Paul.

The exhibition was composed of approximately 90 works, divided into two main rooms, one showing the European tradition (which was composed mainly of delicate pen and ink drawings and watercolors), and the American tradition (which tended to be brighter in chroma and more exuberant).

Displays of books and magazines in the cases gave context to the original art, and tied the images to the joys of youthful dreaming about faraway worlds.

The opening was packed with people of all ages and backgrounds. There were even some kids looking up from their glowing devices.

"In the last twenty years we've seen science fiction come out of the shadows," said Michael Whelan, a noted paperback cover illustrator throughout the 1980s, as he toured guests through the galleries. "Now it's become part of the mainstream." He remarked about the ease with which contemporary illustrators can submit their work to publishers via email, but "now we're competing with artists all over the world."

Illustrations of Imaginative Literature: Masterpieces of American and European Science Fiction from the Korshak Collection will be on exhibit at the Stamford Museum, Stamford, CT through October 29, 2017.

​It will then continue at the Chazen Museum at University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI
