In this one-of-a-kind combination of art and text, Maira Kalman expresses her deeply unique perspective. The Principles of Uncertainty is a collection of Maira Kalman's New York Times articles that offers an enticing invitation to see life through the eyes of a beloved artist. These clever, quirky drawings, ideas, and images - which at first appear random - eventually build an intricately interrelated worldview, an idiosyncratic inner monologue, and are part personal narrative, part documentary, part journey, part chapbook, and all Kalman.
My dream is to walk around the world. A smallish backpack, all essentials neatly in place. A camera. A notebook. A traveling paint set. A hat. Good shoes. A nice pleated (green?) skirt for the occasional seaside hotel afternoon dance.
