The pictures make powerful use of vacant expanses and uncluttered space. The haunting beauty and emotion she captures, the mysterious and spiritual quality of her work, had an effect that stopped me and made me look again at the remarkable, unconventional style that seemed to speak from the soul of the artist. When I closed the book I had fallen under the spell of one of the finest illustrators of our time, and I experience this each time I open a book by Lisbeth Zwerger. I am honored and delighted that the magic of this wonderful artist will be on exhibit at my Museum.</div>
