Favorite Silent Animation #7 - Lichtspiel (1921-1925)

By the late 1910s, some European artists were beginning to incorporate animation into their art.  Walter Ruttmann’s Lichtspiel series, produced in four separate opuses, allowed his groundbreaking abstract art to come beautifully to life.  I love these images--true living paintings!  And I was thrilled to see them show up in the wonderful recent German TV series, Babylon Berlin.  Ruttman wasn’t too proud to apply his art to advertisements either, and these are stunning works of art in themselves, such as his advertisement for Excelsior-Reifen (1922), Kantorowicz-Liköre (1922), and the GeSoLei trade fair (1926).

Ruttmann’s work inspired his fellow German artists like Hans Richter, who created Rhythmus 21 (1921), Viking Eggeling, who created Symphonie Diagonale (1921), and Oskar Fischinger, who created An Optical Poem in 1938 and even animated a segment in Walt Disney’s Fantasia (1940).

im listening to this old ass band i used to hear in this game called phantom crash, Anonymass (opus 1)

and it feels like it's noon and rainy outside

and im making paper airplanes and clicking my pen

and looking out of my office window because all of my work is done,

im getting off the tram and going for a cup of coffee and getting a small meal,

I'm seeing a stray cat laying by my mailbox,

im taking off my shoes and getting a bath,

im reminiscing about the people i love

and what tommow will bring

only to find im dreaming

Zodiac Alphonse Mucha

Zodiac 1896 hangs in Mucha Museum Prague Zodiac (1896) Zodiac was Mucha’s first work under his contract with the printer Champenois and was originally designed as an in-house calendar for the company. In this composition, Mucha incorporated twelve zodiac signs in the halo-like disk behind the woman’s head, one of Mucha’s customary motifs. The majestic beauty of the woman is emphasised by her…
