Ernie Fosselius (born 1946) is an American filmmaker, best known
for his classic Star Wars parody, "Hardware Wars." In recent
years, Fosselius has retired from filmmaking and has taken to
whittling mechanically animated carved caricatures and automata
which he displays in traveling galleries, including the (now
mothballed) "Marvelous Mechalodeon" and the brand-spanking new "Crankabout
Mechanical Theater," an entirely human powered exhibit.
The "Crankabout Mechanical Theater" will be providing
unparalleled interactive entertainment in Quicksilver's
Sculpture Garden from 11�6 on Sunday June 10th. A special reception will be held for Fosselius between 3 & 5pm on that day.
