Cooking with Eric Carle

Eric Carle’s career in book publishing began with commissions for Red Flannel Hash and Shoo-Fly Pie (published in 1965), a compilation of folk recipes from across the United States. When he switched over to his signature collage style, Carle continued to feature food in many of his books, often highlighting his own favorite foods and personal stories. From The Very Hungry Caterpillar to Walter the Baker, the exhibition features more than 50 works dating from 1965-2019.

Curated by Isabel Ruiz Cano, Rachel Hass, and Courtney Waring.
