SUMMARY:Animated Art: An Afternoon With Joan Gratz
DESCRIPTION:Animated Art: An Afternoon with Joan Gratz\nSat. February 25@3pm\, Sun. February 26@3 pm\nSOLD OUT\nAcademy Award winning director and animator\, Joan Gratz\, a pioneer in “Claypainting” and a favorite at film festivals world-wide\, will be joining us at the Carl Cherry Center for two very special afternoon screenings of her highly original\, animated short films\, selected from over the past 30 years and including the World Premiere of her just completed film “The Battle for Swan Lake” (with cats!). \n\nHer films range in content through painterly expressions of poetry\, improvised abstraction and animated social documentary\, with her clever wit and humor always close at hand. Working directly before the camera\, she applies bits of clay\, blends colors and etches fine lines to create a seamless flow of images\, that are\, in turns\, both lyrical and surprising.\n \nThe 70 minute program will include screenings of eight of her films from 1992 to 2023\, two of these in collaboration with other artists. A question and answer with Joan will follow the screening.Please join us\, and Joan\, for a World Premiere of her newest film and retrospective of her remarkable work.\n\n \nWatch video film trailer:  https://vimeo.com/789873987 \n \nTickets are $15 available on Eventbrite or by calling (831) 624-7491.\n \n\nThis program has been generously sponsored by Hofsas House Hotel in Carmel by the Sea hofsashouse.com and by Designer Wallcoverings designerwallcoverings.com\n\n\nFilms in Order of Presentation\n \nMona Lisa Descending the Staircase: An animated history of 20th century painting.

While there\, her work included design and animation for the Academy Award nominees\, “Return to Oz”\, “Rip Van Winkle” and “The Creation” (which landed her a United Airlines television commercial\, with more to follow.)\n\n \n\nBy 1987\, Joan started her own company\, “Gratzfilm”. Here she could focus on projects and collaborations of her own making\, while also freelancing with Will Vinton when the timing worked for her.\n \nIn 1992\, Joan found herself on stage accepting the Oscar for the Best Animated Short\, “Mona Lisa Descending a Staircase\,” a 7 minute film chronicling the history of 20th century art. Joan had spent 5 years (while working on other projects) to fully develop the idea for this film and collect the perfect 55 images to eventually blend seamlessly together. And then she spent another two years dedicated to painting it all by hand\, in clay\, one frame at a time.\n \nMulti-award winning director of short animated films and commercials\, Joan  has traveled along with her films to Russia\, Iran\, Croatia\, France\, China\, Hungary\, Romania\, Brazil\, Korea\, Turkey\, Bosnia\, Canada\, Poland\, throughout the U.S. and now to Carmel by the Sea!\n  \n\n\nFor more information about Joan\, please visit her website at  www.joangratz.com
