  • ANIMATION in MOROCCO: NEW GENERATIONS Whilst It Is Possible
    ANIMATION IN MOROCCO: NEW GENERATIONS Whilst it is possible to catch a glimpse of animation in the Moroccan film Ali Zaoua: Prince of the Streets (2000) by Nabil Ayouch, the popularity that this film garnered with international audiences is not true for most of contemporary Moroccan animation. Where there has been attention and discussion directed at Moroccan film (Orlando, 2013, 2011, Carter, 2009, Dwyer, 2007, Hennebelle, 1976), it was hard to come by evidence of discourses in academic literature on Moroccan animation.1 Filmmaking in Morocco occurred as far back as the early 1900’s, with the establishment of the Centre Cinematographique Marocain in 1944 and the production of two Moroccan post-colonial feature-length films made in 1968 (Carter, 2009). This history has contributed to the visibility and support that Moroccan cinema has garnered on local and international platforms. Nevertheless the same was not visible in the case of animation, resulting here in a sporadic collection of accounts that are by no means a comprehensive narrative of the existence and development of this form in Morocco. As other accounts of the animated form have demonstrated (Wells, 1997, Pilling, 1998), this peripheral status is not unique to Moroccan animation. The outlying position of animation in relation to film, for example, has resulted in the tardy establishment of the field of animation studies within discourses on the moving image in Europe and America. However, in the case of animations produced outside of these geographies (Bendazzi, 1994) the condition is compounded further and animation studies scholars can only offer piecemeal narratives and brief glimpses of animations from further afield.

Honks, Whistles, and Harp: The Transnational Sound of Harpo Marx 1 Honks, Whistles, and Harp: The Transnational Sound of Harpo Marx Marie Ventura Introduction: a Transnational Trickster 1 In early autumn, 1933, New York critic Alexander Woollcott telephoned his friend Harpo Marx with a singular proposal. Having just learned that President Franklin Roosevelt was about to carry out his campaign promise to have the United States recognize the Soviet Union, Woollcott—a great friend and supporter of the Roosevelts, and Eleanor Roosevelt in particular—had decided “that Harpo Marx should be the first American artist to perform in Moscow after the US and the USSR become friendly nations” (Marx and Barber 297). “They’ll adore you,” Woollcott told him. “With a name like yours, how can you miss? Can’t you see the three-sheets? ‘Presenting Marx—In person’!” (Marx and Barber 297) 2 Harpo’s response, quite naturally, was a rather vehement: you’re crazy! The forty-four- year-old performer had no intention of going to Russia.1 In 1933, he was working in Hollywood as one of a family comedy team of four Marx Brothers: Chico, Harpo, Groucho, and Zeppo.

For the first time in a major museum exhibition, LACMA presents Expressionism not as a distinctly German style, but as an international movement in which artists responded with various aesthetic approaches to the work of modern masters. The German side of the story has been less well known in the United States until just recently, and LACMA's groundbreaking exhibition provides visitors and scholars alike an opportunity to explore the nuances of the interrelationship between a group of artists that includes not just Van Gogh and Kandinsky, but Henri Matisse, Georges Braque, Andre Derain, Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and many others. Sponsored by the museum and the Historians of German and Central European Art, topics presented explore in depth the relationship between French art and Germany artists, Cubism's impact, and the impact of non-Western art on European art from this era.
