Description
Please read full description! Animation of several art masterpieces morphing into each other.
NOTE: I posted this without knowing the background behind it. Since then, I've learned that it was created by Joan C. Gratz, an artist who used to work for Will Vinton's claymation studio. The entire video is done in clay and won an Oscar in 1992.
This video (along with a few other shorts, which I have not seen) has been released on video, but can be difficult to obtain as it is currently out of print AFAIK. Amazon lists it with occasional availability through Amazon Marketplace resellers at http://www.amazon.com/Mona-Lisa-Descending-Staircase-Poulot/dp/B00065GX5U
