Tim Burton - LACMA

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art presents a major retrospective exploring the full range of Tim Burton's creative work, both as a film director and as an artist, illustrator, photographer, and writer. 

The exhibition brings together over 700 drawings, paintings, photographs, moving-image works, storyboards, puppets, concept artworks, maquettes, costumes, and cinematic ephemera, including art from a number of unrealized and little-known personal projects. Many of these objects come from the artist's own archive, as well as from studio archives and private collections of Burton's collaborators.

Costume Exhibit running regularly in LA

Arclight Cinema's Costume Exhibits

The Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood and Sherman Oaks  put up rotating displays of movie costumes and props from films they are currently showing.  The Arclight's website does not keep the costumes listed on the website... but if you sign up for their newsletter they often mention which costumes are there.... sometimes. 

Costumes are normally only there for a few weeks... but you get a close up look of some of the hottest media costumes out there.... and they allow photographs!   (Yea!)  Lighting varies from OK to really lousy.  Sometimes they are in cases, but some are not.  It's well worth bringing a small still cam that likes low light for some great one-time-chance shots.

bulletPlease share any pics with the whole group over on F-Costume .
