Frank Animation

Monday, January 28th, 2008


Nothing says surreal more than a Frank comic drawn by Jim Woodring (see A Quick Art Culture Catch Up), except perhaps a DVD devoted to animating Frank’s strange and dark world.

VISIONS OF FRANK collects 8 wild Frank animations made by some of Japan’s most innovative and idiosyncratic filmmakers: Taruto Fuyama, Eri Yoshimura,art unit COCOA,DROP INC., Masaki Naito,Kanako Kawaguchi, Naomi Nagata. Each piece is an interpretation of a classic Frank comic and is scored by musicians from Japan and the USA.
