Bosa THE SHINY BUGS Ceramic sculpture

Bosa dresses up Warner Bros' official bunny mascot: The Shiny Bugs is a lively and shining special edition project designed by Vittorio Gennari for the 100th anniversary of the company, founded in 1923 by the four Warner brothers.‎ Warner Bros has chosen Bosa as a partner to celebrate an important event: the 100th anniversary of the Studios:  Bugs Bunny, the mascot, becomes The Shiny Bugs, a sculpture made of refined ceramics.‎ For this co-branding special edition project that will be available for a limited time of two years, Vittorio Gennari reinterprets the character with a cheeky, amused and seemingly innocent attitude, designing a well-rounded figure rich of material textures, shiny colours and metallic finishes.‎  Cunning, funny and impertinent, Bugs Bunny is one the most recognizable and world-wide represented cinematic characters, long enough to have his own US postage stamp and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.‎ Even if his first appereance was in the end of the thirties, he is still a beloved icon by the new generations, that see him as a positive symbol of wit and intelligence.‎ To celebrate this occasion Bugs Bunny is dressed with elegance as suits his refined personality, showing off many details and shiny accessories, decorated with glossy glazes and precious metals that create a nice contrast between the fur parts with a delicate satin effect.‎ The details are redesigned by actualizing the history of the character.‎ From the the golden gloves that resemble the yellow version worn by the first Bugs Bunny, to the fur on his paws as in the recent film Space Jam 2, a reboot of the 1996 cult movie set in the basketball universe that is quoted with with his big shoes designed with low-poly tecnique, a distinctive language of Vittorio Gennari.‎  The coat alternates blue – Warner Bros signature colour – and silver stripes and it is completed with a bow tie and a cummerbund.‎ The eyes shine with the same colours of the Studios: blue and yellow.‎ The interior part of the ears is chrome pink and the whiskers are designed with a tridimensional texture that evokes the waves of the Looney Tunes logo, that it is also reprised in the green/blue tone of the paws.‎ Last detail: the pins on his lapel that report Warner Bros and Bosa's logos.‎ Colours: coloured glazes and precious metals
