Description
Oddball Films and guest curator Lynn Cursaro present, Sugar Shock: Sweet Visions of Candy, Culture and Industry. This taffy pull of gooey ephemera is sure to please both sweet tooths and film fans. From the rustic, snow-covered tapping camps of the 1920’s Maple Syrup and Sugar to the modern Hershey bar conveyer belts of the The Great American Chocolate Factory it’s a big job satisfying the yen for ambrosial treats. The perfectly piped icing of a highfalutin royal wedding cake is only one mind-blowing work of Artistry in Sugar, he can even make edible dishes. Kids get into the act in At Your Fingertips: Sugar and Spice, a guide to molding sparkling crystals into Christmas and Easter treasures! Vintage cartoon fantasies of an all sugar moon beckon in Candy Town. We haven’t forgotten to include the stunning dental hygiene claymation The Munchers. The usual suspects are giving and getting pies in the face: The Three Stooges in Scheming Schemers and anti-gay rights activist Anita Bryant in news footage. And MORE! Plus, home-baked gingerbread “sugarcubes” will be among the complimentary treats from the curator’s kitchen.More Info
