Summary

Cartoon Modern is the first book to tell the story of a critical decade in animation design: the fifties. Through hundreds of rare and forgotten sketches, model boards, cels and film stills, this delightful and thoroughly researched account charts the evolution of animation's style as it abandoned the "lifelike" look for a sophisticated, often abstract approach, echoing developments in modern painting and the graphic arts.
