Conceived and curated by London’s renowned Barbican Centre, the exposition invites visitors to appreciate cartoons as important and influential elements in our culture. From the earliest black and white cartoons to the latest in contemporary, avant-garde animation, Movie-Se offers a complete view of the history of animation through over one hundred works divided into six themes: Apparitions, Fables and Fragments, Characters, Superhumans, Structures, and Visions. Instead of introducing titles chronologically, the thematic categories introduce viewers to specific characteristics that make animation work.

Divided in rooms all through the CCBB’s first floor, Movie-Se starts with snippets of movies from the earliest pioneers of animated film: the English Eadweard Muybridge and the French Étienne-Jules Marey and the Lumière Brothers. These early pictures produced at the end of the 1890s – a cat falling on the ground, a woman dancing, legs walking across the screen – give the viewer a historical context of the birth of movies, and then placed next to a 1929 Walt Disney film featuring lively cartoon skeletons dancing at a cemetery, show just how much the craft advanced in a mere thirty years.

Movie-Se: History of Animation at CCBB The works in the second room, “Fables and Fragments,” contain some of the most recognizable movies of the twentieth-century. In a dark, cozy, and improvised private screening area, the exhibition encourages viewers to take a seat and revisit classics that bring fables to life, like Walt Disney’s “Snow White” (1937) and “Pinocchio,” (1940) as well as lesser-known, but innovative short films like puppeteer Jiří Trnka’s finest work, “The Hand,” (1965) and Tim Burton’s first stop motion short, “Vincent” (1982). A collection of the most memorable animated characters of all time greets visitors in the “Characters” section, featuring images and clips of Yogi Bear, Roger Rabbit, Betty Boop and Bart Simpson, among others. “Superheroes” brings together the Hulk, clips from the Japanese manga-turned-anime cartoon, Sailor Moon (1992-1997), as well as Studio Ghibli’s animated epic, “Princess Monokoke” (1997). The exhibition will remain at the CCBB until April 7th, 2013, photo by Maria Lopez Conde. The last two rooms feature movies that focus more on techniques than on accurately portraying wellknown stories or realistic characters. Particularly, “Alone: Life Wastes Andy Hardy” (1998) is featured in “Structures,” as a film that makes the leap into experimental art by exploring the DNA of movies with a number of quick scenes after another.

The last part of the exhibit – one created specifically for Brazilian audiences – boasts a small number of Brazilian animated classics. The exhibition, which opened on February 5th and will remain open until April 7th, has drawn crowds of kids of all ages to the historic CCBB building in downtown Rio. Gilcarlos and Luciana Teixeira, a married couple who found out about the exhibit while walking down Centro, brought their 6-year-old son, Guilherme, here last Sunday. “I liked the cartoons and that they tell the story of cartoons,” Guilherme said, after walking out of the exhibit. “I think Movie-Se is very educational and great for the entire family,” Mr. Teixeira added.

João Sicsú Luis Nassif 17 Distribuição da renda após dez anos A chegada dos tempos 3 MOVIE-SE – NO TEMPO Menalton Braff Mino Carta Cara de anjo A peculiaridade DA ANIMAÇÃO CCBB, Rio de Janeiro De terça 5 a 7 de abril Desde que o americano Winsor McCay lançou em 1911 o curta-metragem Little Nemo, ou Pequeno Nemo Animado, o mundo da animação -tornou–se- amplo e coletivo, mas essencialmente pessoal. É do afeto particular, sobretudo, de que vivem os personagens do passado e em constante renovação no imaginário popular, como atenta o especialista Greg Hilty. Essa afeição terá certamente respaldo na mostra de fôlego sob sua responsabilidade que tem início na terça 5, no Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil, no Rio de Janeiro. Movie-se – No Tempo da Animação, que segue em Eventos Premiação O melhor de ‘As Empresas Mais Admiradas 2 Saiba tudo o que ocorreu na última edição do evento abril para o CCBB de Brasília, reúne um lote de cem trabalhos entre instalações, projeções e desenhos do acervo do Barbican Centre de Londres. O histórico dá conta do pioneirismo de McCay, ainda com sua bem–sucedida dinossauro Gertie, as criações tradicionais de Walt Disney, seu seguidor, dos estúdios modernos como o Pixar e, por fim, das chamadas animações adultas no cinema e na tevê, a exemplo dos filmes de Tim Burton, de Persepolis (2007), da iraniana Marjane Satrapi, e dos Simpsons. São projetos tributários em maior ou menor grau de invenções seminais como a rotoscopia de Max Fleischer, que entre 1918 e 1929 criou a série muda em que personagens famosos como Betty Boop e o palhaço Koko saíam de seu tinteiro para interagir com o criador. Com afeto. Betty Boop, clássico de Max Fleischer ver tod Natural a prevalência e Los Angeles dado o alcance dos contos de fada de Disney, dos infantis de Hanna Barbera e da força atual dos estúdios americanos. Mas a seleção oferece a possibilidade de contato com outras técnicas tradicionais e sofisticadas. É o caso da França, com Georges Méliès e Fernand Léger, com seu balé mecânico, e do Japão, que dos mangás de Masami Kurumada, de Os Cavaleiros do Zodíaco, e do erotismo de Toshio Maeda, avança para o elaborado e surreal traço de Hayao Miyazaki, o realizador de A Viagem de Chihiro. Cabe à Alemanha uma das poucas precursoras no meio masculino, Lotte Reiniger, que em 1926 animou Príncipe Achmed, um raro desenho que ainda se tem registro hoje. E prova de que o gênero avançou para outras linguagens está na adoção pelas artes plásticas, de que fazem uso nomes como o belga Francis Alÿs.
