From March 5th, 2022 to June 26th<\/strong> , 2022, Micky, Donald and their friends will<\/strong> be in the messmer art gallery. The exhibition “Disney’s Great Draftsmen”<\/strong> presents the works of Walt Disney’s innovative draftsmen – Carl Barks, Al Taliaferro and Floyd Gottfredson<\/strong> – and thus deals with the topic of sequential pictorial art of the 20th century. Based on original sketches and storyboards<\/strong> from the years 1933 to 1995, the reference to cartoons such as the early Silly Symphonies<\/strong> is presented and the intermedia interface between comics and animated films<\/strong> is thus addressed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The exhibition shows the way from the sketch to the finished comic<\/strong> and takes a look behind the scenes by showing the working methods<\/strong> of the creators of the world-famous characters<\/strong> . The old masters are also juxtaposed with contemporary draftsmen<\/strong> , which makes it possible to understand the long development of the popular comic characters<\/strong> from the beginnings to the present day. Look forward to extraordinary exhibits<\/strong> with rarity value!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The best-known Disney animator, Carl Barks<\/strong> (1901-2000), first came to Disney Studios in his thirties and initially worked in the animation department<\/strong> . He made his debut as a draftsman with the 1936 Mickey Mouse<\/strong> short film Thru the Mirror<\/em><\/strong> .<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Many of the characters that are still popular today were penned by Carl Barks<\/strong> , such as Scrooge McDuck<\/strong> , Gyro Gearloose<\/strong> and Gustav Gans<\/strong> . Barks also depicted the residents of Duckburg<\/strong> in art forms other than comics. Among other things, some print graphics<\/strong> will also be on display.<\/p>

The duck named Donald Duck penned<\/strong> by the cartoonist Al Taliaferro<\/strong> (1905 \u2013 1969) made its first appearance in the 1934 short film The Wise Little Hen<\/em> . Moving on, Donald became popular through the Silly Symphonies<\/em><\/strong> of the 1930s. Donald Duck as a comic was not originally planned and could only be realized as a daily (daily strip) in the Pasadena Star News in 1938<\/strong> after lengthy persuasion by Al Taliaferro. Later, Al Taliaferro expands the duck repertoire to include Donald’s fianc\u00e9 Daisy Duck<\/strong> and his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie .<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Floyd Gottfredson<\/strong> (1905-1986), the great Mouse Man, first drew for the Silly Symphonies<\/em><\/strong> film series and has been bringing Mickey Mouse stories to life since the 1930s.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

At first he drew the so-called daily strips<\/strong> in black and white, but from 1932 he was<\/strong> also commissioned to design colored Sunday pages<\/strong> about Mickey Mouse. Until Bill Walsh was hired by Disney, Gottfredson was solely responsible for the plots of the Mickey stories. Since he even edited the lyricists’ dialogue<\/strong> , the story and character<\/strong> development is consistent<\/strong> over the years.<\/p>

Jan Gulbransson (*1949) is the grandson of the well-known painter<\/strong> and graphic artist<\/strong> Olaf Gulbransson. In terms of characters<\/strong> and narrative style<\/strong> , he follows his predecessors<\/strong> and his role model Carl Barks, while his themes are becoming more contemporary<\/strong> .<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
