Tim Burton retrospective @ LACMA

Another day in LA and we decided to head for the new Tim Burton exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Unfortunately, you're not allowed to take photos inside, but you can check out this link to find out more about it if you want.

Hilarious, touching, informative, inspirational and educational, the retrospective is chock full of drawings, sculptures, memorabilia from certain movies and funny insights from the writer/director. I thoroughly recommend a visit if you can make it.

My favourite piece was a letter from Tim Burton to Johnny Depp about the character of Willy Wonka, but I also loved this poem which came complete with fantastic artwork.

Toodles!

  1. You've never read The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories? How have you managed to live your life without the joy of Voodoo Girl and Stick Boy and Match Girl in Love?
