The Weatherspoon is thrilled to announce its presentation of a selection of these original animation artworks–from not just
Snow White, but also from
Pinnochio,
Fantasia,
Dumbo, and
Bambi, the five films that scholars refer to as the Walt Disney Studios’ “Golden Age.” Collectively, these materials will offer visitors an opportunity to understand the complex and collaborative nature of the animation process.
This exhibition draws on the expertise of Dr. Heather Holian, UNCG Professor of Art History, who teaches regularly on the history of animation. In her current research on early Disney art exhibitions, Dr. Holian is studying the legacy of the Galerie St. Etienne and its director, Dr. Otto Kallir, who began exhibiting and selling Disney artworks in the 1940s.
