LONDON.- A celebration of the rich and varied career of John Burningham, one of Britain’s most distinguished and best-loved illustrators, opened at The Fleming Collection from 13 September to 22 December 2011. The retrospective exhibition, entitled John Burningham: An Illustrated Journey, includes illustrations, working drawings and previously unseen archive material. The artistic achievements of Burningham, who marked his 75th birthday earlier this year, have been extraordinary. He is both the author and illustrator of many children’s books, did the illustrations for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang by Ian Fleming, and produced a series of superb travel posters which are on show in a simultaneous exhibition at The London Transport Museum. The Fleming Collection, which has become an embassy for Scottish art in London, also shows sketches from Burningham’s time working on slum clearance schemes in Glas
