PUBLIC FOUNDATION GREATER Educational Resource DES MOINES ART MIFFY FOUNTAIN by TOM SACHS
PUBLIC FOUNDATION GREATER Educational Resource DES MOINES ART MIFFY FOUNTAIN BY TOM SACHS PHOTO: BEN EASTER ARTWORK BIO Miffy is a cute little bunny who is the star of an internationally renowned series of children’s books that follow her innocent adventures. Drawn with simple lines and ﬂat, bright colors, she has become an icon of childhood, with almost 40 Miffy books translated into over 50 languages. Miffy is also a merchandising giant, with her features found on dozens of commercial objects. The contemporary American artist Tom Sachs adapts the sweet and guileless bunny in his Miffy Fountain in which she cries a fountain of tears which fall into a pool surrounding her. Transformed from the pages of a children’s book into a three- dimensional, monumental sculpture, Miffy was constructed with foamcore and glue which was then cast into bronze and painted white. ARTIST BIO Sculptor Tom Sachs is best known for reinterpreting modern icons and commenting on consumerist and capitalist culture. Sachs engineers materials of all sorts in his works, often leaving evidence of his construction process, as he does in Miffy Fountain, where the seams of the original foamcore sections are maintained in the bronze. The artist is interested in subverting the slick anonymity of many manufactured objects by purposely revealing how his objects are fabricated, as he explained: “I want 1 labor to be the point, because everything in our lives is miraculously made with no idea of how it’s done….I wanted a transparency of construction.”* *www.artnet.com/artists/tom-sachs/2 Sachs furthered his repertoire with a Nike sneaker collaboration, releasing the NikeCraft Mars Yard sneaker in 2012.

Wildbrain Cplg Teams up with Istituto Europeo Di Design for Miffy 65Th Anniversary Project
WILDBRAIN CPLG TEAMS UP WITH ISTITUTO EUROPEO DI DESIGN FOR MIFFY 65TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT Plush designs created by international students now on display in ‘Miffy: 65 Years a Source of Inspiration’ exhibition in the Netherlands London UK – 28 July 2020 – WildBrain CPLG, one of the world’s leading entertainment, sport and brand licensing agencies, has teamed up with Italian design school Istituto Europeo di Design (IED Milano) for a fashion project to celebrate the 65th anniversary of Mercis BV’s classic character brand Miffy. The project saw students from award-winning design schools in the UK, Hong Kong, Italy, Mexico, and the Netherlands create limited edition Miffy plush, which are now on display in an exhibition titled ‘Miffy: 65 Years a Source of Inspiration’ at Centraal Museum in Utrecht. Massimo Giacon, Tutor and Professor at IED, said: “I was delighted to oversee this design project - the Miffy character is known and loved all over the world, and it was an invigorating creative challenge. My priority was to demonstrate the story behind Miffy, and emphasise the character’s innocence and magic - harnessing the youthful energy and hope of our students as a lens for the project. Even if in our contemporary world there seems to be no space for simplicity and goodness, actually there is a great need for beauty. The final results created by IED students were so amazing they inspired me to create my own Miffy designs, and I’m sure all visitors to the exhibition will feel the same type of magic from this adorable character.” Maria Gurrieri, Managing Director at WildBrain CPLG Southern Europe, said: “It has been a real pleasure to collaborate with Mercis BV and IED Milano on this project to celebrate young artists and design excellence as part of Miffy’s 65th anniversary.
