"An Art in Its Making" - Museum Booklet


This guidebook from Stephen Ison's Snow White animation art exhibition is quite nice. Steve's collection was on display at the Indianapolis Museum of Art from December 4, 1994 to February 5, 1995. It proved to be the most successful program in the museum's history. With a wealth of black-and-white images, detailed sidebars, and historical information, this booklet made for a great take-home souvenir for the attendees of the exhibit. Measures 12" x 8".

Animation history, the exhibition, and how Walt Disney came to produce Snow White...

And here's the Public Programs booklet from the IMA (Winter 1995). Among the featured activities at the museum were tours of the Steve Ison exhibit, Snow White talks by author Martin Krause, animation demonstrations, a festival of animated film shorts, a luncheon with Snow White (with special SW fare and a tour of the exhibit) and more. Booklet measures 8" x 6".
