"Remixing the Magic" in LA TIMES
Alex Chun has been writing some excellent animation/pop culture-related pieces for the LA TIMES in recent months, and his most recent article in tomorrow's paper is no exception. This time, Alex writes about the "Remixing the Magic" art show currently on display at Gallery 1988. One thing I wasn't aware of until I went to the opening last week was that Disney was actually sponsoring the show, a commendable gesture on their part—even if they did put forth a few rules on what could and couldn't be depicted. Chun sheds some more light on the nature of Disney's sponsorship in the LA TIMES piece. To see more art from the show, check out this earlier post on the Brew. (And congrats to our super-talented pal Katie Rice for getting quoted in the article.)
