Description
Just as the furniture makers, silversmiths, and ceramicists of the eighteenth century, Disney's artists embraced their creative freedom and sought to expand the limits of design and invention. The book highlights the audacious work of artists such as Mary Blair, Hans Bacher and Peter J Hall and compares them to the 'animated' and anthropomorphic ceramics and gilt bronzes of S vres and Meissonnier. It explores the shared creative roots of their two seemingly disparate artistic realms and seeks to revitalise the feeling of excitement, awe, and marvel, which both Rococo craftsmen and Disney animators sought to spark amongst their audience.
Dr Helen Jacobsen is Executive Director at The Attingham Trust and former Curator of French 18th-century Decorative Arts at the Wallace Collection (London).
Dr Wolf Burchard is associate curator in the Department of European Sculpture and Decorative Arts at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York).
The catalogue explores the influences of the art and architecture of France on Walt Disney and his studios, highlighting in particular their re-interpretation of three seventeenth- and eighteenth-century fairytales including Cinderella (1950) and Beauty and the Beast (1991).
