Robert James Sabuda is a leading children's pop-up book artist and paper engineer. His recent books, such as those describing the stories of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland, have been well received and critically acclaimed.〔New York Times, 2006〕 ==Biography== Sabuda was born in Wyandotte, Michigan and raised in Pinckney, Michigan.〔 He was skilled as an artist from a very young age, and attended the Pratt Institute in New York City. His specific interest in 3-D paper engineering (i.e., pop-up books) was sparked by a book he received that was illustrated by Vojtěch Kubašta. His interest in children's book illustration began with an internship at ''Dial Books for Young Readers'' while attending the Pratt Institute. Initially working as a package designer, he illustrated his first children's book series, of "Bulky Board Books", in 1987. Wide recognition only came his way after he started designing pop-up books for children in 1994. Sabuda has experimented with modes of illustration in a conventionally conservative genre, using techniques including: *faux stained glass (Arthur and the Sword) *batik (Blizzard's Robe) *papyrus-textured illustrations (Tutankhamen's Gift) *murals (Saint Valentine) Sabuda presently works from his studio in New York City and is involved in a wide variety of projects that involve movable paper. He has also released a video of his working style. Sabuda has also been awarded the ''Meggendorfer Prize'' three times, an award instituted by the ''(Movable Book Society of America )'' in honor of German illustrator Lothar Meggendorfer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Sabuda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
