>>             "That's All Folks!"
>> "Bugs Bunny and Friends of Warner Bros. Cartoons"
>>
>>   Popular Traveling Exhibition Now Available
>>
>>
>> The most popular cartoon characters in the United States -- and the
>> recipients of a major exhibition at New York's Museum of Modern Art
--
>> are the subject of a new traveling exhibition now available.
>>
>> "That's All Folks!" is an overview of Warner Bros. cartoons, the
>> Hollywood animation studio that gave birth to films and characters
that
>> have become part of American folklore.  As The New York Times noted
in
>> its review of the exhibition's catalogue: "Life in these United
States
>> would be inconceivable without the shared referent of Bugs Bunny, The
>> Road Runner and the Coyote, Tweety and Sylvester, The Tasmanian
Devil,
>> Marvin the Martian, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, and Speedy Gonzales" --
to
>> name only a few of Warner Bros.' internationally beloved characters.
>>
>> Produced since 1930, the "Looney Tunes" and "Merrie Melodies" of
Warner
>> Bros. have been acclaimed as the finest and funniest animated shorts
>> ever made.  Further, they are known to virtually every American with
a
>> television set; indeed, most people under the age of 45 have seen
Warner
>> cartoons literally hundreds of times as they were growing up.  Yet
the
>> actual artwork from which these films were made is largely unknown.
>>
>> "That's All Folks!" is a comprehensive overview of the Warner cartoon
>> studio, concentrating on the studio's "Golden Age," from 1938 to
1955;
>> it consists of over 160 original drawings, paintings, "cels" and
related
>> artworks used in the making of the classic Warner shorts.  All of the
>> studio's characters are represented, as are all of the studio's
>> principal directors: Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Friz Freleng, Bob
Clampett,
>> and others.
>>
>> One section of the show provides a step-by-step breakdown of how
classic
>> "cel" animation is made, using actual production artwork from Warner
>> shorts to illustrate every phase of the process.  Text panels and
other
>> interpretive material treats the history of Warner cartoons, and the
>> studio's role in the history of American culture.
>>
>> A one-of-a-kind opportunity, the current exhibition is a greatly
>> expanded version of the show that was presented for over four months
at
>> The Museum of Modern Art, where it was an immense critical and
popular
>> success.  A tour of the United States is now being planned; dates are
>> available beginning immediately.
>>
>> The show's size is highly flexible, but it is most comfortable in
areas
>> of between 2,500 and 4,000 square feet.
>>
>> For more information, please call, in New York: (212)353-6042.
Queries
>> sent to this internet site ([log in to unmask]) may require some
