Description
This book will be the official catalogue for the exhibition. It will be the first publication to explore the relationship between Tim Burton's cinematic creations and the world of design. The reader will be invited into an examination of what is now broadly referred to as the 'Burtonesque', intersecting his iconic films with the impact of these unique design aesthetics on broader visual culture. The catalogue will unpack Tim Burton's distinctive visual language, exploring the intersection of gothic, carnivalesque and fantastical elements that define his cinematic masterpieces. Insightful essays by design experts and film critics will offer a deeper understanding of the director's creative process, making this catalogue a homage to role that design practice plays in the hauntingly beautiful worlds he creates.
