BEATLES CARTOON POP ART SHOW FEATURING THE WORKS OF THE LATE ANIMATOR RON CAMPBELL
ClearStory Arts / S. Holtzclaw Ave. April 1, 2022 - April 3, 2022
Ron Campbell
Ron Campbell literally animated our childhood. Beginning in 1958 in his native Australia with cartoons like Popeye, Beetle Bailey and Krazy Kat, Campbell’s career spanned the entire golden age of Saturday morning cartoons. Sadly, Campbell passed away in January 2021 at the age of 81 but he left behind dozens of paintings that he created during his retirement. These paintings were inspired by many of the beloved cartoons that he was involved with including the Saturday Morning Beatles cartoon series, Yellow Submarine, Scooby Doo, Smurfs, Rugrats, Winnie the Pooh, George of the Jungle, Jetsons, Flintstones and finishing his career with Ed, Edd n’Eddy. Ron Campbell’s animation paintings will be on display and available for purchase at a special pop-up art exhibit for three days only - Friday, April 1st through Sunday, April 3rd at ClearStory Arts (CSA), 1673 S. Holtzclaw Avenue (near the intersection of E. Main Street) in Chattanooga. ClearStory Arts is a dynamic, community-based collaborative space for artists and creatives. It is currently home to 40+ artists, many of which will have their studios open during this show.
