    Tribute to Chuck Jones at the Museum of Modern Art. Animator

    NO. 25 The Museum of Modern Art FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modemart TRIBUTE TO CHUCK JONES AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART ANIMATOR WILL BE PRESENT CHUCK JONES: THE YEARS AT WARNER BROTHERS, a special four-day program honoring this famous animator and director of such stars as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, the Roadrunner, and Wile E. Coyote, will take place at The Museum of Modern Art from March 19 through March 22. The program includes a screening of 12 cartoons on Saturday, March 19 at noon, two showings on Sunday, March 20 at noon and 2:30 at which Mr. Jones will be present to discuss his work, and repeat showings of the Sunday programs on Monday, March 21 and Tuesday, March 22 at noon. The film programs, selected by Greg Ford, historian of the American an­ imated film, are designed to show Chuck Jones' development at Warner Brothers, where he was director of animation for 26 years. Jones began his career in a representational style heavily influences by Disney, but soon developed a more abstract, zanier style of cartooning, shown in "The Dover Boys" of 1942 with its lurched-tempo motion, and "The Aristo-Cat" of 1943 with its expression- istic backgrounds. It was during the fifties, however, while working with Warner's stable of cartoon stars, that Jones fully developed his style, based not on exaggeration but continual refinement. It is a "personality animation," according to Greg Ford, "marked by logical application of space, movement, and editing ideas, and by very subtle drawing that keenly deliniates character attitude." Among the films to be shown during this tribute are "What's Opera Doc," (1957), "Duck Amuck" (1953), "Ali-Baba Bunny" (1957) and "To Beep or Not to Beep" (1964).

Cartoons Comes to Berkshire Museum January 25, 2020 Special exhibition highlights original artwork and creative processes behind the classic animations [Pittsfield, MA] – Forget duck season and rabbit season, January 25 to May 10 is cartoon season at Berkshire Museum! A whole cast of colorful characters and one-of-a-kind artwork will brighten the winter doldrums as part of The Art of Warner Bros. Cartoons, an exhibition of original artwork from the world of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. An opening celebration featuring family-friendly activities, cartoon screenings, and light refreshments will be held Saturday, January 25, from 1 to 5 pm. During this special exhibition, Warner Bros. fans of all ages can see production artwork including drawings, paintings, and transparent celluloids (known in the industry as “cels”) used to create some of the studio’s classic cartoon shorts from their debut in 1930 through the early 1960s as they explore the history of this legendary Hollywood animation studio. Never intended to be displayed, each work is a marvelous visual icon on its own, exhibiting the remarkable talent and ingenuity behind the familiar films. Artwork, timelines, film clips, and interpretive panels shed light on the creative process behind the scenes of these masterpieces of satirical humor, trace the development of each iconic cartoon star, and explore step-by-step the techniques through which animated films are made. Works by all of the studio’s directors will be richly represented including Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Friz Freeling, and Bob Clampett.

Creative Commons License Wild Animation: From the Looney Tunes to Bojack Horseman in Cartoon Los Angeles 1 Wild Animation: From the Looney Tunes to Bojack Horseman in Cartoon Los Angeles Laurel Schmuck The figure for nature in language, animal, was transformed in cinema to the name for movement in technology, animation. And if animals were denied capacity for language, animals as filmic organisms were themselves turned into languages, or at least, into semiotic facilities. The medium provided an alternative to the natural environment that had been destroyed and a supplement to the discursive space that had never opened an ontology of the animal. (Lippit 196-197) 1 BoJack Horseman (Netflix, 2014–), an animated adult television show about a washed-up actor who happens to be a horse, imagines Los Angeles as home to a society of humans and animals living together as equals. Creatures such as cats, turtles, giraffes, and giant insects sport human fashions and work human jobs, but they all retain some of their most stereotypical animal attributes.

    The Cartoons of Chuck Jones December 10, 1994-January 1, 1995

    Program note for Chuck Amuck: The Cartoons of Chuck Jones December 10, 1994-January 1, 1995 Chuck Jones was born in Spokane, Washington in 1912. Before he was six months old, his family moved to Southern California, and Jones has lived there since. Spending his childhood near Hollywood during the silent film era, Jones grew up in the vicinity of such great comedians as Mack Sennett, Buster Keaton, and Charlie Chaplin. While this proximity may not be the source of Jones’s particular comic genius, the comparison between his cartoons and the films of these pioneers is apt. Like the best of these screen artists, Jones has created a distinct comic universe with sympathetic characters who are in constant struggle against the rest of the world. And like Chaplin and Keaton, Jones is able to not only portray the characters and their struggles, but to step back and precisely define the conditions that they are struggling against. In simplest terms, his cartoons set their comedy in the context of a world view. The closest comparison with Jones’s world view is to the films of Buster Keaton, with whom Jones shares a sense of minimalism, a love of mechanics, and an ability to portray the absurdity of characters who strive to succeed in a coolly indifferent world. Rather than despair, Jones’ characters constantly try to be inventive and adapt to the situation, no matter how hopeless. A perfect expression of the Jones world view is the set of rules he obeyed in the creation of the Coyote-Road Runner series: RULE 1.

By Craig Kausen Grandson of animator Chuck Jones When people ask what it was like growing up with Chuck Jones as my grandfather, I tell them that he was like many other grandfathers I knew growing up. He spent time on the Above: Bugs Bunny and weekends with us when he was home from Elmer Fudd in “What’s the studio where he was making cartoons dur- Opera, Doc?” Center: ing the week. One of my earliest memories Daffy Duck in “Duck with him was when I was just learning to swim Amuck.” Bottom: Michigan around the age of five (a bit late for most J. Frog in “One Froggy Evening.” Courtesy Warner youngsters living near the ocean). I finally Bros. found the wherewithal to dog-paddle out into the middle of the pool by myself and at that moment Chuck walked onto the pool deck wearing his khakis, deck shoes, collared shirt, and even a hat. He saw what I had achieved and without Arguably the hesitation ran to the end of the pool, dashed off the most famous diving board, picked me up with water still cascading short animat- from atop his hat and down his face and threw me ed film ever into the air with a loud “Woo-hoo!!” I can still see his created, water-soaked, smiling face staring up at me in joy- “What’s ous celebration. Perhaps he was just a little bit dif- Opera, Doc? ferent than some other grandfathers I knew.

    2018, Vol. 15 (1), 29–49(138) Victor Kennedy revije.ff.uni-lj.si/elope University of Maribor, Slovenia doi: 10.4312/elope.15.1.29-49 UDC: [791.228:82-311.9]:53 The Gravity of Cartoon Physics; or, Schrödinger’s Coyote ABSTRACT When Wile E. Coyote goes off a cliff, instead of falling in a parabolic arc, he comes to a halt in mid-air, hangs there until he realizes that he is no longer on solid ground, then falls. Many critics and, indeed, the creators of the cartoons themselves, describe this as “cartoon physics,” which breaks the rules that appear to govern the real world, but several principles of modern physics are in fact depicted here. He is both falling and not falling; when he is able to observe his situation, the laws of quantum physics catch up with him. This, and the principle of relativity, govern the apparent paradoxes of the cartoon world. Although the Coyote was, according to his creators, conceived as a parody of a modern scientist and played for laughs, he illustrates several paradoxes of modern science and the unease with which these are widely viewed. These cartoon physics have become a meme that has developed in later animated cartoons and live-action science fiction films, and is now even a part of modern-day science textbooks.
