PERDIDO EN LOS MUNDOS DE JIŘÍ BARTA.

The exhibition hall Josep Renau, UPV hosted in 2014 the exhibition The Lost World of Jiří Barta, devoted to the renowned Czech animator. This exhibition, curated by Beatriz Herráiz and Miguel Vidal, was possible thanks to the collaboration between the Czech Centre, the Valencian Filmoteque - CulturArts, and the Master Degree in Animation UPV, and it allowed us to admire the material that the master had used in several of his productions. The sample included dolls, story boards and sketches, all them displayed with great elegance to the delight of visitors, familiar or not, with this animator's career. The following article discusses the work of Jiří Barta, one of my first contacts with auteur animation, and how I revisited his work as a result of this exhibition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
