Characters At War
February 1- April 8, 2007Through the countless images collected in its archives, publications and exhibitions, Characters at War examines the vast array of possibilities characters offer as signs of an independent graphic language. The exhibition enables visitors to meet the elite of international character design, literally eye-to-eye. From Super Mario on one end to Emily the Strange on the other–hundreds of all time favorites and shiny newcomers from the flat-faced world of comics, graffiti and merchandising are pushing through to the third dimension! In addition to the 3-D characters, the exhibition includes the Characters in Motion DVD projection, a compilation of over 90 films by 60 international studios, artists and designers.
