Rolling Rains Report: Precipitating Dialogue on Travel, Disability, and Universal Design Main November 16, 2004 Theme Parks and Real Life Brazil is the second nation to hold a conference on travel and disability. The Congresso Ibero-Americano de Acessibilidade no Turismo begins tomorrow. Below is an essay on my topic for the Congresso, "Theme Parks and Accessibility." Theme Parks and Real Access How many theme parks can you name? Disneyland, Six Flags, Marine World, and Great America are some better-known US theme parks. Tivoli in Denmark, Huis Ten Bosch in Japan, and GRS Fantasy Park in Mysore, India might turn up on your list if you are a theme park connoisseur. Cadbury World, Hershey Park and Hershey World might also come to mind if chocolate is your passion. Now, turn the question around. How do those theme parks name you? That is, who are you allowed to be once you enter the magic of a theme park? What is a theme park? It is first a park. Extent and boundaries define a park. A park occupies space in a particular location. Unlike a nomadic circus or a traveling carnival it has permanence of place. We go to a park. A park is a physical space that can be marked. Parks create frontiers the contrast between “inside” and “outside.”

Home Museums Back Issues Membership THE ARCHITECTURE OF REASSURANCE: MICKEY MOUSE AT THE ANDY WARHOL MUSEUM Designing the Disney Theme Parks June 19 – October 10, 1999 The Andy Warhol Museum By Karal Ann Marling I n 1981, Andy Warhol created a memorable series of images depicting Mickey Mouse, American icon. Or, as Warhol called him in the title of a group of four Mickeys embedded in a field of celestial blue, a myth: Myths: Mickey Mouse. That there are four Mickeys in Warhol's seminal painting suggests the ubiquity of the mouse which, according to company mythology, was invented by Walt Disney in 1927 on a westbound train, after Disney's New York distributor stole the rubbery rabbit who was his current cartoon star. Mickey's virtue was that he was only a couple of circles perched on pipestem legs, a composition easily drawn by anybody with a pencil; the business of making animated cartoons was an assembly line process, a commercial art alluded to in Andy Warhol's multiple Mickeys, laid down on canvas with a silkscreen that facilitated the act of factory-like replication. There was, strictly speaking, no Mickey—only Mickeys. Lots of 'em. As the persona of Mickey Mouse evolved through the years, he became rounder and rounder, as plump as a cream-filled doughnut, and as soft as a sofa cushion. The circles circumscribed Mickey psychologically, inhibiting the development of his character on the one hand while making him into a kind of universal symbol of happiness and innocence on the other. Finally, it became almost impossible to make an interesting Mickey Mouse cartoon because the hero was just too darned nice: he could only smile and giggle when Andy Warhol painted him in sets of two and four, or all alone, as a portrait bust with a bright red background, isolated, frozen, and turned into into myth by his own undeviating pattern of sweet, suggestive circles. Breasts. Puffy clouds. Lollipops. And everything nice.

44. Theme City: Imagining Pittsburgh “Pittsburgh as a theme Park” was the topic for 600 children and adults at the Warhol The architecture of Reassurance Designing The Disney theme parks). http://www.carnegiemuseums.org/cmag/bk_issue/1999/sepoct/feat6.html

Home Museums Back Issues Membership “Pittsburgh as a Theme Park” was the topic for 600 children and adults at the Warhol Museum’s Family Day on July 17 (in conjunction with the current exhibition The Architecture of Reassurance: Designing The Disney Theme Parks). With the help of Steve Beyer, senior concept designer for Walt Disney Imagineering, many people playfully combined “imagination + engineering’ to make a large “Golden Triangle Theme” through the city. Their artwork illustrates this article. During the summer Thomas Sokolowski, the director of The Andy Warhol Museum, assembled a few of the city’s more visionary thinkers and gadflies, and invited them to talk about the way Pittsburgh could be themed. He invited them “not to restrict their thoughts to those meadows of mud which the bulldozers are now traversing, but to see the city as a totality.” Theme City: Imagining Pittsburgh By R. Jay Gangewere I n real cities, dreams come true because the myth of a city, its true identity, is fully understood and appreciated by the marketers who package it for the public. Call it “theming”: creating special places that play to a certain set of values to build pride and promote tourism. Cleveland did it with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, New York City did it with South Street Seaport, and Baltimore did it with Inner Harbor. Director Thomas Sokolowski says The Andy Warhol Museum is the perfect place for uninhibited discussions about Pittsburgh’s themes. “Let the flaming tongues wag as power brokers meet behind closed doors,” he says. He adds: “We should recall that in earlier times great civic leaders like Pericles consulted sculptors and artists about the proper icons for their city, and the Parthenon was the result.” He adds, “We should also remember that ownership is not the same as leadership.”

Enola Gay was an exhibit in the Smithsonian; whether you agreed with its point or not, it was a serious effort to make a statement. Imagine the Enola gay exhibit in Disneyland. Impossible. To my mind, the fate of the Enola Gay exhibit goes to show that in the popular mind, sometimes there is little difference between theme parks and museums. Certainly those who had the exhibit closed were not open to having their fixed ideas challenged; they wanted the kind of uplifting experience normally found in theme parks. There is an added problem, of course; and that is that the Smithsonian is a "national" museum and therefore considered by many to be a vehicle for promulgating our national mythology; hence the Enola Gay difficulties.

Home Subscribe About the Trust Advertising ... About Us Search Once Upon a Time Theme parks, overshadowed by mega-amusement parks, struggle to make a comeback. Story by Tricia Vita / Jan. 9, 2004 document.write('E-mail this Article'); Printer-friendly version Eighteen years after Maryland's Enchanted Forest theme park closed, weeds and neglect are overtaking its storybook characters. (Meredith Peruzzi) "How much longer, Dad? How much farther, Dad?" Rachelina Bonacci remembers asking as her family drove toward the Enchanted Forest, a storybook-theme park in Ellicott City, Md., outside Washington, D.C. "Then you'd see the King welcoming you, and you knew you were there!" recalls Bonacci, 33, whose memories of the Enchanted Forest are shared by legions of kids who visited from 1954 to 1986, when the park closed. Today, a larger-than-life statue of Ole King Cole remains as a roadside icon that ushers visitors into the Enchanted Forest Shopping Center that was built on the 20-acre park in the 1990s. But the king's minions haven't fared as well: the Ugly Duckling, Gingerbread Men and other storybook characters, made in the 1950s of papier mache and coated with a material called Celastic, are crumbling to ruin behind a fence marked "No Trespassing."

A World of Wonders The Statue of Liberty, Big Ben, the Great Wall and Mount Rushmore are all on display, alongside windmills, wooden shoes and Marilyn Monroe; where else - Japan By Ron Gluckman /roaming around Japan T HOUGHTS OF GODZILLA AND KING KONG race up the spinal bean stock as my body grows to gargantuan proportions. The earth quakes as I leap laughable little barriers. Cars crunch underfoot and screaming people scatter in all directions, as I stomp forward to scale the Empire State Building. The only danger is possibly tripping over the Arc de Triumph and crashing into Big Ben or the Statue of Liberty. It's easy to feel like a colossal kid at Tobu World Square in Japan. From the Taj Mahal and Roman Coliseum to the London Bridge and Great Wall of China, more than 100 of the world's famous buildings, bridges and monuments are recreated in excruciatingly exact 1:25 scale. Phineas Fogg would seem like a slowpoke in such surroundings, where minutes take you around the same world that Fogg circled in 88 days. Michael Palin would barely find enough material for a postcard, let alone a television series and supporting books, from a tour of Tobu World Square. But the Japanese always think big, even in miniature. That's why they built the entire world to precise scale at this odd site about two hours by train from Tokyo.
