    Artist and filmmaker Tim Burton has created some of the most wonderfully eccentric characters and visions in film in the past 25 years, most notably Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Alice in Wonderland. Taking inspiration from popular culture, fairy tales and gothic traditions, Burton reinvented Hollywood genre filmmaking as an expression of personal vision. This museum tour will take students through a major retrospective exhibition of Burton’s career featuring over 700 drawings, paintings, photographs, moving-image works, storyboards, puppets, concept artworks and costumes as well as unrealized and little-known personal projects. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the fantastic world of one of our generation’s most groundbreaking artists.
