SUMMARY:PICTURE THIS! at Union Hall - Brooklyn
DESCRIPTION:PICTURE THIS! at Union Hall – Brooklyn \nPICTURE THIS! is a new show from Brandie Posey & Sam Varela: two girls who want to push the boundaries of what a comedy show can be. Picture This! is a live comedy show with stand-ups performing while they are drawn live by some of the best animators\, cartoonists\, and other artists in Hollywood\, CA\, SF\, NYC and Portland. Picture This! has also debuted in Toronto\, New Zealand and Australia! The comedians don’t know what the animators are drawing and the animators don’t know how the comedians will react.  \nIt may be weird.  \nIt may different.  \nBut it will be FUN! \nEvent Detail http://www.unionhallny.com/event/1670636\nPurchase https://www.ticketfly.com/purchase/event/1670636

SUMMARY:An Evening with Candy Kugel @ MOMA
DESCRIPTION:MOMA LINK \nIn Candy Kugel’s new film I\, Candy (2018)\, the process of deconstructing a childhood drawing triggers the artist’s reflections on a personal history with anti-Semitism\, political activism\, and life choices affected by luck and determination. Displaying an encyclopedic range of animation techniques with remarkable dexterity\, I\, Candy is a testament to Kugel’s pioneering 45-year career in the field. Animation artist and historian John Canemaker joins Kugel to discuss her legacy as a woman artist in the traditionally male business of animation.

SUMMARY:Cartoon Carnival 65: Bunnies vs. Ducks
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to sit back and relax for another hefty batch of 16mm (no digital!) animated cartoons from the 1920s to the 1940s\, straight from the Stathes Archives to the silver screen at Shoestring Press… \nProgram #65 takes place just in time for Peter Cottontail’s big day! It’s a fluffy feather-filled battle between some of the cutesy animal characters now associated with Easter—in this case\, bunnies and ducks—for your attention and affection. Whether it’s Bugs Bunny\, Daffy Duck\, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit\, or any number of other one-shot and obscure characters…who will win? Hop on down and bring your fellow wascally wabbits out for a holy resurrection of ancient cartoon hoots and hollers.  \nFeaturing live ragtime bunny hopping by Charlie Judkins for select silent-era shorts! \nShow tix $10 at the door. \nLight beverage refreshments available. BYO food\, too! \nDoors at 8pm; show starts promptly thereafter. ~Arrive on time for good seats~

SUMMARY:Jackie Greene's Music Video Extravaganza!
DESCRIPTION:EVENTBRITE INVITE \nJoin musician Jackie Greene and animator Bill Plympton for the world premiere of their new animated short film\, “The Modern Lives”\, followed by a live performance by Greene and a Q&A with both artists. \nThis screening is free and open to the public. General Admission RSVPs via Eventbrite are appreciated\, but not necessary\, and do not guarantee admittance. Seating is on a first-come\, first-served basis. Doors will open approximately 30 minutes prior to the screening. \nhttp://themodernlives.eventbrite.com/ \nhttp://svatheatre.com/events/jackie-greene-bill-plymptons-music-video-extravaganza/ \nIt’s a perfect match of fiercely independent artists: Jackie Greene\, the rocking singer/songwriter hailed by the NY Times as the “Prince of Americana” and Bill Plympton\, the Oscar-nominated “king of indie animation.” \nGreene has always had a knack for capturing the human experience in all its messy\, emotional complexity in song\, and Plympton is well known for coupling his hand-drawn animation and twisted sense of humor with explorations of adult themes\, relationships and sexuality. Together they’ve created “The Modern Lives\,” an animated short film that takes you on the road from a tripped-out alien invaded Times Square to the deep roots of the American South. Along the way there are encounters with Elvis\, Satan\, Willie Dixon\, an Alabama Queen … and so much more! \nThe program will also feature Bill’s animated videos for Madonna\, Kanye West and “Weird Al” Yankovic – and Jackie performing a couple of songs from the film and the EP that inspired it\, “The Modern Lives – Vol 1”. A Q&A session with Bill and Jackie will cap off the night!

Formed in the summer of 2014 by Moroccan expat Samir LanGus\, the group draws on the considerable talents and expertise of Hassan Ben Jaafer\, a Maâlem\, or master gnawa musician\, originally from Fes\, Morocco. Under the guidance of Ben Jaafer\, Innov has delved deep into the roots and rituals of gnawa music\, and made a big splash in NYC\, playing some of the city’s most prestigious rooms including Lincoln Center\, Music Hall of Williamsburg\, Brooklyn Bowl and the storied backroom of Brooklyn’s Barbès. For the uninitiated\, gnawa music is the ritual trance music of Morocco’s black communities\, originally descended from slaves and soldiers once brought to Morocco from Northern Mali and Mauritania. Often called “The Moroccan Blues”\, gnawa music has a raw\, hypnotic power that’s fascinated outsiders as diverse as writer/composer Paul Bowles\, jazz giant Randy Weston and rock god Jimi Hendrix. The music is utterly singular\, played on an array of unique instruments — from the lute-like sintir that the Maâlem uses to call the tune\, to the metal qarqaba (castinets) with which the kouyos (chorus) keep time and pound out clattering\, hypnotic rhythms. Hailed by Brooklyn Magazine as one of the “”5 Bands You Need to Know in Brooklyn’s Arabic Music Scene””\, Innov Gnawa make great use of this traditional repertoire\, and add their own\, contemporary spin with additional African and Latin percussion. Taken as a whole\, this exciting new outfit works hard to fuse a centuries old North African tradition with the pulse and attitude of New York City.

SUMMARY:Cartoon Carnival 53: Fairytales & Fables
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to sit back and relax for another hefty batch of 16mm (no digital!) animated cartoons from the 1910s to the 1940s\, straight from the Stathes Archives to the silver screen at Shoestring Press… \n \nThroughout animation history\, it was immensely popular to adapt (and spoof!) classic fairytales and fables from antiquity…sometimes giving them a ‘modern’ spin. This was especially true in the era of theatrical shorts\, and we’re showcasing these whimsical animated versions of yesteryear to combat a dreary bit of February cabin fever. Mother Goose? Little Red Riding Hood? Cinderella? Snow White? Aladdin? Jack & the Beanstalk? We’ll have ’em\, and many others\, at TSCC #53. Bring a friend…bring the kids…bring anyone!! \nShow tix $10 at the door.\nLight refreshments will be available for purchase from Shoestring Press. \nDoors at 8pm; show starts promptly thereafter. Arrive on time for good seats!\n***********************\nTommy Stathes is a “Cartoon Cryptozoologist” with a rare film print collection comprised of over 1\,500 shorts. Tommy’s long term goal has been to acquire and preserve as many early animated films as possible and reintroduce them to the public.
