Ray Harryhausen has inspired so many careers, films and imaginations that it's easy to forget the hours upon hours, days upon days he spent creating creatures and characters for films that transport us into worlds we want to travel to, creatures we want to meet, and films we want to create.
Reaching into the treasure troves that catalogue his illustrious career, Mr. Harryhausen has brought out another treasure for our bookshelves. The Art of Ray Harryhausen is filled from cover to cover with sketches, drawings, storyboards, photographs of maquettes and story upon story from this incredible artist.
If you've loved this man and his work; if you've always wanted to see him in person; if you love stop motion animation; heck, if you just learned about king kong and wonder what influenced Peter Jackson, please join us for this incredible evening. Ray will be here to tell stories, talk to us about the history of the art we love, and sign copies of his new book, The Art of Ray Harryhausen.
You'll have a chance to buy copies of this new book -- and have Ray sign them for you. (We'll also have copies of Ray's first book, "An Animated Life", in case you would like one of those as well.)
Please join us for what should be
a uniquely fabulous event.
