We're excited to bring an exhibition on Ray Harryhausen to Winchester this September. For many of us growing up with his films, his animations were awesome, mesmerising and inspiring. Ray was the pioneer behind stop-animation processes that allowed his models to be combined with the live action filming of actors on location. So many of the films and animations we see today - Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Avatar, Lord of the Rings - owe their existence to Ray. While we explore his inspirations and influences on industry in the main exhibition in The Gallery (26 Sept - 16 Feb), at City Space we'll be showcasing public contributions that will show our love of Ray’s magical worlds of fantasy sci-fi.
