The Amusement Park' is a monumental installation covering 240 square metres. The viewer, seated in an enclosed space and gazing through a large window, can contemplate an infinite, nocturnal landscape in which are the vestiges of an entirely fictitious amusement park. The place is deserted, covered in snow. Nothing moves. Everything is closed. The carousel, the fairground booth, the ferris wheel, the roller coaster - all completely still. Directly in front of us is a small caravan with the light on inside. In front of it a campfire smoulders. It's as if the deserted amusement park is inhabited by a lone occupant, an individual invisible to us. Composer Tom Pintens created a beguiling soundscape for this immersive installation.
“This is truly one of those magical (cursed?) objects that I cannot believe has fallen through the cinematic cracks .” That's how bestselling author Daniel Kraus describes – on his Twitter feed – seeing the unreleased GEORGE A. ROMERO film THE AMUSEMENT PARK, for which you can see here some of the stills he posted. Kraus, who co-wrote (with Guillermo del Toro) the Trollhunters and The Shape of Water novelizations, is currently completing the unfinished Romero novel The Living Dead (planned for a fall 2019 release). Part of his immersion into Romero's world was to watch the unreleased 1973 film (shot in between Season of the Witch and The Crazies), which is not a horror movie but a meditation on ageism, set in an amusement park, that's so scathing, it was shelved. As Kraus describes it, “It’s hellish. In Romero’s long career of criticizing American institutions, never was he so merciless.” (Follow Daniel at @kraus_author.)

Made a special trip last week. RG’d from @untoldhorror: This past week we visited GEORGE A. ROMERO’s gravesite with @whyhorror to remind you to support GARF, the George A. Romero Foundation, which you can find online at georgearomerofoundation.org. Founded by George’s wife, Suzanne Desrocher-Romero (also the President), and overseen by a board that includes George’s daughter, Tina (Vice President) and several former collaborators such as producer Peter Grunwald, composer John Harrison and manager Chris Roe, “The GARF is dedicated to honoring the life, work and cultural influence of George A. Romero, and supporting a new generation of filmmakers and artists inspired by his legacy.” One of the Foundation’s projects is the restoration of the recently rediscovered Romero film The Amusement Park. Visit the website to find out how you can help. #untoldhorror #georgearomero #georgeromero #garf #georgearomerofoundation #filmmaking #indiefilmmaking #horrormovies

THIS MAGNIFICENT MAN AND HIS FLYING MACHINE: Prolific ride designer and inventor of the fully automatic machine gun, Sir Hiram Stevens Maxim first unleashed his Captive Flying Machine in Britain in 1904, though by the time his aerial diversion was in full swing at Pennsylvania's Willow Grove Park (seen here), it was called the Airships. A glorious original still survives at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, U.K. Meanwhile, Maxim, 1840-1916, also held patents on mousetraps, sprinkler systems, menthol inhalers, and hair-curling irons. Devoting his later life to aviation—he came thisclose to developing the helicopter—Maxim turned his back on the amusement-park biz when a safety-minded Willow Grove forbade him from adding rudders and blades to his Airships. For more on Maxim and others like him, check out THE AMUSEMENT PARK, to be published May 7. #theamusementparkbook #bdlev #willowgrovepennsylvania #philadelphia #pennsylvania #willowgrove #blackpoolpleasurebeach #historicalamusementparkflatrides #defunctnostalgicamusementparks

. THE AMUSEMENT PARK by Stephen M. Silverman has just published by Black Dog, a division of Hachette, and is available online and in book stores now. . Stephen is a dear friend for decades. I was thrilled for him to include our Oliver Smith drawing of the third act curtain from “On The Town” which we acquired from the Betty Comden estate. . Our large Ludwig Bemelmans Coney Island painting is a full page in the book. The Bemelsman oil and the Smith drawing are for sale. . The books is an amazing look at 900 years of thrills and spills, and the dreamers and schemers who built amusement parks around the world. His knowledge is spectacular and the images breathtaking. . . . . . #stephenmsilverman #cyclone #hachettebooks #tefaf #parkavenuearmory #artnewyork #frieze #tefefnewyork #blackdogpublishing #coffeetablebook #amazon #modernart #midcentury #americanart #artconsultant #artadvisor #nycart #heliclinefineart #newyorker #bemelmans #oliversmith #onthetown #ludwigbemelmans #ArtNet #coneyisland #brooklynart #historicalart #carlylehotel #1stdibs @moma @smithsonian @whitneymuseum @wolfsonian @brooklynmuseum @museumofcityny @nyhistory @metropolitanmuseum @lacma @guggenheim @crystalbridges @deyoungmuseum @parkavenuearmory @artinstitutechi @thefullerbuilding

Cue the 1812 Overture. Forget the Napoleonic Wars, the bigger skirmish was over who deserves credit for putting rollers on coasters: the French, or the Russians. The debate rages in THE AMUSEMENT PARK, coming May 7, from Black Dog & Leventhal. #bdlev #theamusementparkbook #amusementparkenthusiasts #ridewithace #paris #montagnerusse
FROM 'THE AMUSEMENT PARK' ARCHIVE: Intent on escaping his humble Philadelphia beginnings and billing himself "W. C. Fields, Tramp Juggler"—the hobo moniker because he couldn't afford to launder his shirt—14-year-old William Claude Dukenfield made his professional debut on the opening day of Norristown, Pennsylvania's Plymouth Amusement Park. The park manager stole his salary. Greater opportunity lay at Fortescue's Pavilion on one of Atlantic City's amusement piers. Fields would juggle and then be sent out to drum up business—by pretending to drown. On cue, Fields would leap from the pier into the ocean, a shill would scream SOS, and lifeguards would come running and haul him back into the bar—where the concerned crowd would be sold nickel glasses of suds. "I once drowned 12 times a day for two weeks," griped Fields, giving as good a reason as any why he, the world's most famous imbiber, would never allow water to pass his lips again. #theamusementparkbook #bdlev #atlanticcity #wcfields #defunctnostalgicamusementparks #oldmoviemagic #norristown #pennsylvania #philadelphia

. Ludwig Bemelmans (1898 – 1962), Coney Island, 35 x 27 inches. Signed lower left. Original frame. . This painting is for sale. Inquiries invited. . News: we just became a 1stDibs dealer: https://www.1stdibs.com/dealers/helicline-fine-art/ . Bemelmans was known for his “Madeline” series, which began in 1939. He was born in Austria and emigrated to New York in 1914 where he became an illustrator for The New Yorker, Vogue and Holiday magazines. He was also a painter and this work, “Coney Island,” is born of his love for his adopted home, New York City. . When we showed the artist’s grandson the painting he immediately remarked about the frame as he knew it from many of his grandfather's works. Bemelmans used this same Coney Island inspiration for the July 3, 1948 New Yorker cover he painted. . . . #curator #expochicago #modernart #modernism #midcentury #americanart #artconsultant #artadvisor #nycart #midcenturymodern #voguemagazine #brooklynart #amusementpark #disneyland #disneyworld #newyorkcityart #chelseagalleries #thenewyorker #americanscene #bemelmans #bemelmansbar #ArtNet #coneyisland #brooklynart #historicalart #carlylehotel #1stdibs #christies #sothebys @moma @smithsonian @whitneymuseum @wolfsonian @brooklynmuseum @museumofcityny @nyhistory @metropolitanmuseum @lacma @guggenheim @crystalbridges @deyoungmuseum @linkofff @lucasmuseum @parkavenuearmory @artinstitutechi @thefullerbuilding
