Tim Burton


Tim Burton exhibit at the MOMA = my heart swelling to the point of bursting inside my chest with excitement! The exhibit starts this Sunday Nov. 22. and goes until April 26th 2010. For the show, curators Jenny He and Ron Magliozzi raided Burton’s curiosity cabinets for more than 500 photographs, paintings, doodles, storyboards, stories, sculptures, and sketches dating back to his student years at the California Institute of the Arts. Many have nothing to do with the films he’s directed. Some are on canvas, many on notebook paper. Quite a few are on cocktail napkins. “Sometimes these things look like they’re just weird,” Burton says, “but I don’t keep a journal or a diary. They help me to remember a certain feeling—they become time capsules.”(NYMag).

If I wasn't already excited about this exhibit Harpers Bazaar went ahead and did a shoot with photographer Tim Walker titled "Tim Burtons Magical Fashion." Here are the photos:
