SE RUEGA NO SACAR DE LA GALERÍA 1. Proyección LA EXPOSICIÓN SOBRE JIM HENSON: UNA IMAGINACIÓN SIN LÍMITES A lo largo de su singular carrera que se extendió a lo largo de cuatro décadas, Jim Henson creó personajes de marionetas e historias que se convirtieron en iconos del cine y la televisión y han dejado una marca indeleble en la cultura popular. Con su sentido del humor delicadamente subversivo, su infatigable curiosidad y su mirada innovadora sobre el arte de las marionetas, Henson creó los Muppets/Teleñecos y los convirtió en una marca internacional perdurable, nos regaló los adorables personajes de Plaza/Barrio Sésamo y plasmó su rica imaginación en películas e historias para la gran pantalla. En esta exposición indagamos en las extraordinarias aportaciones con las que Jim Henson contribuyó al campo de la imagen en movimiento y desvelamos cómo él y su talentoso equipo de diseñadores, actores y escritores crearon una obra sin parangón que hoy día sigue inspirando y deleitando a personas de todas las edades. 2.

  • Building American Puppetry on the Jim Henson Foundation
    BUILDING AMERICAN PUPPETRY ON THE JIM HENSON FOUNDATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jennifer Kathleen Stoessner, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Examination Committee: Approved by Dr. Joy Reilly, Adviser Dr. Beth Kattelman Adviser Dr. Alan Woods Graduate Program in Theatre Copyright by Jennifer Kathleen Stoessner 2008 ABSTRACT Historically the United States, with the exception of ritual performances by indigenous Americans, did not have a distinct puppetry tradition, utilizing instead the imported techniques of its immigrant population. In the twentieth century, puppeteers began to explore puppetry’s capabilities, producing challenging and innovative theatrical work in a distinctly American style. Puppetry was given a stage as popular broadcasting content on the newly invented television. In this media environment, Jim Henson pioneered new techniques, becoming the most famous puppeteer in history. His success enabled him to serve his field as a spokesman and sponsor. In 1982, he established the Jim Henson Foundation, a non-profit organization to support puppetry artists. The Jim Henson Foundation is the only organization in the United States devoted to funding puppet theater and its mission reflects Jim Henson’s commitment to the community of artists who make American puppetry the vivid panorama it has become. Without the Foundation, puppetry in the United States would not be experiencing the explosion of creativity and exposure it currently enjoys. To present a picture of puppetry in the United States and Henson’s work, a brief history of puppetry in America as well as an in-depth scrutiny of Jim Henson’s career is provided.
