About the book:
The 1950s and 1960s at The Walt Disney Studios marked unprecedented stylistic directions brought on by the mid-century modern and graphic sensibilities of a new wave of artists. This volume explores the contributions of these heroes with special emphasis on the art of Lee Blair, Mary Blair, Tom Oreb, John Dunn, and Walt Peregoy. It includes never-before-seen images from Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, and Sleeping Beauty and discusses Disney’s first forays into television, commercials, science projects and the development of theme parks.
Drawing on interviews and hundreds of rediscovered images that inspired Disney’s films during its most prolific and memorable eras, this volume intimately reveals the rich stories of the artists who brought the characters to life, shaping the whole future of animation.
Catch a glimpse of Mary Blair's memorable art for Disney!
