**STARRED REVIEW** "Turk's expressive paintings with exaggerated features evoke the spirit of Shahn and the artist's depictions of the immigrant experience, working people, and protests. . .A thoughtful introduction to this social justice artist.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Turk's expressive paintings with exaggerated features evoke the spirit of Shahn and the artist's depictions of the immigrant experience, working people, and protests. . . A thoughtful introduction to this social justice artist.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Well-researched and-sourced, this is a valuable addition to the canon of artist biographies. This life of an artist with a social conscience makes itself heard.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Levinson skillfully shows the artist's relatable qualities, such as when young Ben refuses to name names after a classroom prank. Her celebratory text is well-complemented by Turk's strong and distinctively bold, colorful, mixed-media art... Excellent.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Levinson's strong narrative is supported by emotive, brilliantly vibrant paintings in gouache, acrylic, pencil, chalk, and linoleum block prints. This life of an artist with a social conscience makes itself heard.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Levinson's text moves in a smooth, accessible flow. Turk, a professed devotee of Shahn's work, is quite possibly the ideal illustrator for this title. . .A marvelous spur to kids beginning to consider the way art can be political.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Levinson's text moves in a smooth, accessible flow.

A marvelous spur to kids beginning to consider the way art can be political.", **STARRED REVIEW** "Bold, richly layered multimedia illustrations by Turk feature abstracted characters in Shahn's style, while Levinson's smooth, well-researched narrative provides a comprehensive introduction to a justice-minded painter."

Synopsis
The People's Painter is a lyrically told, exquisitely illustrated picture book biography of influential Jewish artist and activist Ben Shahn. A Robert F. Sibert Informational Book Medal Winner An Association of Jewish Libraries Sydney Taylor Book Award Notable Picture Book "The first thing I can remember," Ben said, "I drew." As an observant child growing up in Lithuania, Ben Shahn yearns to draw everything he sees--and, after seeing his father banished by the Czar for demanding workers' rights, he develops a keen sense of justice, too. So when Ben and the rest of his family make their way to America, Ben brings both his sharp artistic eye and his desire to fight for what's right. As he grows, he speaks for justice through his art--by disarming classmates who bully him because he's Jewish, by defying his teachers' insistence that he paint beautiful landscapes rather than true stories, by urging the US government to pass Depression-era laws to help people find food and jobs. In this moving and timely portrait, award-winning author Cynthia Levinson and illustrator Evan Turk honor an artist, immigrant, and activist whose work still resonates today: a true painter for the people.

- v***v (2064)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
