SUMMARY:Photographer Vincent J. Musi: Where The Wild Things Are
DESCRIPTION:In this enlightening talk\, Vincent shares highlights from more than 30 years traveling the world for National Geographic\, documenting a changing planet – from close to home\, to along the iconic Route 66\, to what it’s like to live at the base of a volcano\, to ancient Sicilian mummies. One story that captured his heart took readers “Inside Animal Minds” (National Geographic cover story\, March 2008) and included a deep study of birds\, apes\, dolphins\, and dogs\, revealing a wide range of emotions and communication skills. With his trademark dry humor\, Vincent takes us into the world of animal cognition and on a tour of some of the world’s most unusual pets\, including a hilarious romp through his The Year Of The Dogs project. You may never look at man’s best friend the same way again! \nSince 1993\, Vincent J. Musi has been a regular contributor to National Geographic\, covering a vast range of subjects from the Texas Hill Country to the legendary Route 66\, to the ancient crypts of Sicily and life at the base of volcanoes. A specialist in animal portraits\, his recent work includes projects on domestication\, intelligence and cognition. When Vincent’s work shifted from documenting the world to photographing animals\, he knew he was in over his head and feared it would end his career. He’s still unsure\, as he works with subjects who routinely growl\, bark\, roar\, bite\, hiss\, claw\, poop\, or pee… on him. When the world got smaller during COVID\, Vincent and his wife\, former White House Photographer Callie Shell\, created the Unleashed Studio\, where he taps into his inner Dr. Dolittle to capture unique dog portraits. As a way to amuse himself (and us)\, Vince imagines the inner lives of his subjects and shares often side-splitting and sometimes poignant life stories from their perspective. The weekly Instagram series\, which grew into a book – initially planned to last one year – is called The Year Of The Dogs. The project and posts went viral and the world won’t let him end it. Vincent believes that everything we learn about animals teaches us everything we don’t know about ourselves.

SUMMARY:Exhibits: Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family
DESCRIPTION:The Dayton Art Institute (DAI) will close its 2024 Special Exhibition season with an exciting presentation of two combined traveling exhibitions\, Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family\, on view now through January 19\, 2025. Just in time for the holidays\, enjoy these nostalgic exhibitions highlighting two beloved classics that continue to influence the art of animation. View original drawings of Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) and Chuck Jones\, who brought Dr. Seuss’ beloved holiday tale to life in the 1966 animated special How the Grinch Stole Christmas!\, then laugh alongside Homer\, Marge\, Lisa\, Maggie and Bart as you experience the original handmade animation cels of the acclaimed series. \n  \n“The art displayed in our newest exhibitions explores the significant influence animation has had in pop culture and the worlds of art\, entertainment and business\,” said DAI Head Curator & Curatorial Affairs Director Jerry N. Smith. “Animation art is beloved worldwide\, and for many of us\, this medium is our introduction to art. This work showcases how in each animated classic\, thousands of individual artworks come together to tell a story and create a larger singular work.” \n  \nIn 1966\, the animation of Chuck Jones brought to life Dr. Seuss’ treasured 1957 children’s book How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The animated story is a true television classic\, with generations tuning in annually to watch the story of redemption with the despicable Grinch\, the sweet Cindy Lou Who and the innocent dog Max. The exhibition Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic features original cel art used in the cartoon’s production\, along with concept drawings by Jones (famous for Looney Tunes) and those by Dr. Seuss. \n  \n(B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family showcases the often-irreverent antics of Homer\, Marge\, Lisa\, Maggie and Bart—alongside many other unforgettable figures from the longest-running animated series on American television. Since its debut in 1989\, there have been more than 770 episodes. Initially crafted through traditional ink-and-paint techniques on transparent acetate cels\, the first 13 seasons (1989–2002) were produced by hand before transitioning to cost-effective digital animation. These hand-drawn cels are featured in the exhibition. In the early seasons elements\, now vital to the series\, were created\, including the famous sofa and living room set used to open each episode\, which is replicated at the DAI\, allowing guests the chance to truly enter the fictional world of Springfield. \n  \nFun and colorful\, these two exhibitions showcase the art of illustration. A family-friendly and nostalgic outing\, guests will enjoy more than 400 works of original art\, as well as interactive sensory stations\, educational resources and photo opportunities. \n  \n“In addition to learning about the art of animation and illustration\, those attending our newest special exhibitions can expect a joyful\, playful\, and nostalgic experience\,” said DAI Director & President Michael R. Roediger. “This artwork was created to bring a smile to your face and brighten your day. We’re excited to offer each guest the chance to slip away from any of life’s stresses and spend time reconnecting with characters they know and love. These two exhibitions are fun\, colorful and truly memorable.” \n  \nSeveral related programs will be offered in conjunction with the Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family. These include: \n  \n\nCommunity Tour: November 2\, 1–2 p.m.; November 23\, 1­–2 p.m.; December 7\, 1–2 p.m.; December 19\, 6–7 p.m.; January 18\, 1–2 p.m.\nCost: Members: Free\, Non-members: Included with the Price of Admission\n\n\nFamily Studio Special: December 7\, 12:30–3:30 p.m.\nCost: Members: $20\, Non-members: $25\, Member Family 4-pack: $70\, Non-member Family 4-pack: $90\nAdult Studio Special: November 16\, 12:30–3:30 p.m.\nCost: Members: $35\, Non-members: $45\nAsk Me Anything: November 7\, 6–7 p.m.\, December 12\, 6–7 p.m. and January 9\, 6–7 p.m.\nCost: FREE\n\n  \nThese exhibitions are from the collection of Bill Heeter and Kristi Correa.

SUMMARY:Exhibits: Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family
DESCRIPTION:The Dayton Art Institute (DAI) will close its 2024 Special Exhibition season with an exciting presentation of two combined traveling exhibitions\, Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family\, on view now through January 19\, 2025. Just in time for the holidays\, enjoy these nostalgic exhibitions highlighting two beloved classics that continue to influence the art of animation. View original drawings of Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) and Chuck Jones\, who brought Dr. Seuss’ beloved holiday tale to life in the 1966 animated special How the Grinch Stole Christmas!\, then laugh alongside Homer\, Marge\, Lisa\, Maggie and Bart as you experience the original handmade animation cels of the acclaimed series. \n  \n“The art displayed in our newest exhibitions explores the significant influence animation has had in pop culture and the worlds of art\, entertainment and business\,” said DAI Head Curator & Curatorial Affairs Director Jerry N. Smith. “Animation art is beloved worldwide\, and for many of us\, this medium is our introduction to art. This work showcases how in each animated classic\, thousands of individual artworks come together to tell a story and create a larger singular work.” \n  \nIn 1966\, the animation of Chuck Jones brought to life Dr. Seuss’ treasured 1957 children’s book How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The animated story is a true television classic\, with generations tuning in annually to watch the story of redemption with the despicable Grinch\, the sweet Cindy Lou Who and the innocent dog Max. The exhibition Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic features original cel art used in the cartoon’s production\, along with concept drawings by Jones (famous for Looney Tunes) and those by Dr. Seuss. \n  \n(B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family showcases the often-irreverent antics of Homer\, Marge\, Lisa\, Maggie and Bart—alongside many other unforgettable figures from the longest-running animated series on American television. Since its debut in 1989\, there have been more than 770 episodes. Initially crafted through traditional ink-and-paint techniques on transparent acetate cels\, the first 13 seasons (1989–2002) were produced by hand before transitioning to cost-effective digital animation. These hand-drawn cels are featured in the exhibition. In the early seasons elements\, now vital to the series\, were created\, including the famous sofa and living room set used to open each episode\, which is replicated at the DAI\, allowing guests the chance to truly enter the fictional world of Springfield. \n  \nFun and colorful\, these two exhibitions showcase the art of illustration. A family-friendly and nostalgic outing\, guests will enjoy more than 400 works of original art\, as well as interactive sensory stations\, educational resources and photo opportunities. \n  \n“In addition to learning about the art of animation and illustration\, those attending our newest special exhibitions can expect a joyful\, playful\, and nostalgic experience\,” said DAI Director & President Michael R. Roediger. “This artwork was created to bring a smile to your face and brighten your day. We’re excited to offer each guest the chance to slip away from any of life’s stresses and spend time reconnecting with characters they know and love. These two exhibitions are fun\, colorful and truly memorable.” \n  \nSeveral related programs will be offered in conjunction with the Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family. These include: \n  \n\nCommunity Tour: November 2\, 1–2 p.m.; November 23\, 1­–2 p.m.; December 7\, 1–2 p.m.; December 19\, 6–7 p.m.; January 18\, 1–2 p.m.\nCost: Members: Free\, Non-members: Included with the Price of Admission\n\n\nFamily Studio Special: December 7\, 12:30–3:30 p.m.\nCost: Members: $20\, Non-members: $25\, Member Family 4-pack: $70\, Non-member Family 4-pack: $90\nAdult Studio Special: November 16\, 12:30–3:30 p.m.\nCost: Members: $35\, Non-members: $45\nAsk Me Anything: November 7\, 6–7 p.m.\, December 12\, 6–7 p.m. and January 9\, 6–7 p.m.\nCost: FREE\n\n  \nThese exhibitions are from the collection of Bill Heeter and Kristi Correa. Admission to Merry Grinchmas: Art of Dr. Seuss’ Holiday Classic & (B)ART! America’s Funniest Animated Family is included in the museum’s general admission\, which includes access to all Special and Focus Exhibitions currently on view\, as well as the museum collection galleries.
