“The World on a String” at the Cannon Art Gallery Fall 2011 in Carlsbad CA
Don’t miss “The World on a String,” the current art exhibit at the Cannon Art Gallery in Carlsbad CA, running through December 30, 2011.
The World on a String is a stunning, whimsical collection of puppets from around the world, a glimpse in the Alan Cook Collection of the International Puppetry Museum in Southern California in Pasadena. The World on a String exhibit showcases over 200 puppets spanning multiple decades, countries, and styles, a wonderful history of puppetry - shadow puppets, hand puppets, rod puppets, marionettes and Japanese Bunraku puppets.
Most of us no doubt remember being entertained by puppets of one sort of another while growing up, and a visit to this amazing exhibit recalls those times. Remember Punch and Judy? Yep, they are part of this collection, too.
The photos say it all!
