The cell, or celluloid is a transparent plastic sheet of
cellulose acetate on which hand-painted different animated elements
that are superimposed on a scene to get a picture of a cartoon. It
generates as much as there are images in the film is mostly 24 per
second animation. However, they can be reused if the character appears
in the same profile, for example, or be used several times for the
various elements have driven simultaneously. It should be noted
that most cellulos are actually animations transition therefore the
characters currently conducting a movement and are not aesthetically
very interesting because they have elements incomplete or postures
unbalanced. I am therefore a selection of cellulos which would put more value on the characters or actions.
You're bidding on an EXTREMELY RARE art package that was produced entirely for internal use within a major media corporation, and was never meant to be seen by the general public. Each year for many years, the FOX KIDS Network commissioned an art piece as a special perk for network executives and network affiliate owners (FOX KIDS was a programming block of childrens entertainment on the FOX network from 1990-2002). This art piece would be produced at great expense, with high production values, in extremely limited quantities (we're talking dozens, not hundreds); which would be sent as special gifts to a handful of network executives.
This is one of those pieces, from 1995. It consists of a series of 15 illustrations, each featuring a character or program running on the FOX KIDS Network that year. Each character is rendered into a style or scenario parodying a famous piece of classical or contemporary art. Each piece is litho printed onto heavyweight high-quality textured archival paper, resembling the surface of an art canvas. (To see comparisons of the parodies and the originals, go here.) The heavy art frame was sculpted with bas-relief images of these same characters, cast, and then lovingly composited, hand-finished and antiqued to create the look of ancient gilded wood, with a faux nameplate reading "Musee du Renard des Enfants" (an inside joke, as this would translate roughly to "Museum of the Fox Kids").
The concept is that each of the 15 canvases would be rotated occasionally in the frame, resulting in a seemingly endless variety of new art, based on the FOX KIDS stable of characters. The frame measures 18 inches wide by 21 inches tall by 1.75 inches thick. Each of the 15 art prints measures 13 inches by 16.25, with the image area measuring approximately 10.25 inches by 12.75 inches. The frame and artwork together weighs just under 4.4 pounds (1975 kilograms).
This is a strikingly handsome piece, in mint condition. It has been lovingly cared for in a smoke-free home. You will never see another like it offered at public auction.
Characters or shows sculpted on the bas-relief frame include(clockwise from top left corner): Spider-Man, Carmen Sandiego, Bobby Generic, Masked Rider, FOX Cubhouse, Batman and Robin, Casper The Friendly Ghost, Tasmanian Devil, The Tick and Arthur, FOX Cubhouse, Eek! The Cat, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Life With Louie, Goosebumps, X-Men, and FOX Cubhouse.
The 15 art prints include: Masked Remington features the Saban Entertainment character Masked Rider, a live-action spinoff from the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers franchise, rendered in the style of American West painter and sculptor Frederic Remington.
Doomed Bison-Tazcaux Cave, France features the Warner Brothers/Looney Tunes character Taz (short for Tasmanian Devil), rendered in the style of the prehistoric cave paintings at Lascaux, France.
The Rain of Louie features the animated character Louie (based on the childhood of standup comic Louie Anderson) from the series Life With Louie, rendered as a parody of the Rene Magritte painting Golconda.
