‘What’s Up, Doc? The Animation Art of Chuck Jones’

A whole lot of great cartoons, that’s what’s up. Chuck Jones (1912-2002), for many years one of the creative geniuses at Warner Bros., helped give life and indelible personalities to sassy characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Wile E. Coyote, the Road Runner and many more. This new exhibition at the Museum of the Moving Image salutes his artistry with sketches, story boards, animation cels and photographs. Through Oct. 4, the Drop-In Moving Image Studio each Saturday, from noon to 5 p.m., will feature “Animation Takeover,” helping children older than 7 use Jones’s ideas to create their own projects, from flipbooks to short animated videos. And every Saturday and Sunday during the show’s run, at 1 p.m., the museum will present programs of Chuck Jones screenings. This weekend “‘Duck Amuck’ and Other Cartoons” will star — no surprise — Daffy, as well as a certain wiseguy rabbit.
