Vintage Style Animations


I’ve always had a love for vintage-style ani­ma­tions.  Especially Mary Blair's art for Disney.  It's so beautiful!
If you have a love for animation don't miss the Frac­tured Fairy Tales Exhibit.  Frac­tured Fairy Tales is an exhi­bi­tion that fea­tures 32 illus­tra­tors and ani­ma­tors reimag­in­ing the char­ac­ters and worlds of fairy tales. These sto­ries were orig­i­nally dark, cau­tion­ary tales even­tu­ally rein­vented and brought to life through ani­ma­tion, which is how we prob­a­bly think of them today. In this show, each artists adds their own twist and inter­pre­ta­tion to a spe­cific tale, and you can see that some are clearly influ­enced by illus­tra­tive styles of the past.
