The Vinyl Frontier
a film by Daniel Zana
At the dawn of the 21st century, renegade toy designers, bored with
the G.I. Joe status quo, boldly remixed and reassembled the toys of
their parent's generation. Birthing a new format of toy and medium of
artistic expression, these artists were the first to explore The Vinyl
Frontier. A world where Art is Fun!
By exploring a landscape inhabited by a wide range of artists, their
creations, and obsessive collectors, the documentary examines the hybrid
objects' artistic and commercial value, as well as the creative process
of art-toy making.
The Vinyl Frontier is a comprehensive look at a fresh and exciting
art movement that anyone young at heart and imaginative can enjoy.
The documentary features artists, scholars, and collectors such as:
Paola Antonelli, Attaboy, Van Beater, Tim Biskup, Luke Chueh, Dalek,
Tristan Eaton, Ron English, Ferg, Huck Gee, Thomas Han, Jim Koch, Frank
Kozik, Haze XXL, Joe Ledbetter, MCA, Van Beater, Brian McCarty,
Dave Bondi, Bill McMullen, Tara Mcpherson, Gary Baseman, Sket One, Joey
Potts, Jermaine Rogers, Bwana Spoons, and many many more..
