Tim Burton exhibit at NYC's MoMA in November
from NY Times:
"Though one may imagine that Tim Burton’s idea of a celebration is sitting alone in a darkened room thinking about tragedies that befell him as a child, the morbid filmmaker will be honored in a more traditional manner by the Museum of Modern Art. The Modern said it would hold a retrospective on the career of Mr. Burton, right, director of “Beetlejuice,” “Edward Scissorhands” and “The Nightmare Before Christmas.” It will run from Nov. 22 through April 26. The exhibition will contain more than 700 drawings, paintings, puppets, costumes and other artifacts from Mr. Burton’s film career, as well as displays of his early nonprofessional and student films, artwork from his Web animation series “The World of Stainboy,” book projects like “Tim Burton’s Tragic Toys for Girls and Boys” and severed-head props from “Mars Attacks!” A film series is planned to accompany the exhibition."
Looking forward to this!
