Just thought I'd mention the fact my favourite director, Tim Burton, is coming to Melbourne in June to coincide with his exhibition at ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image).
Tim Burton: The Exhibition will be on show from 24th June to 10th October, direct from the The Museum of Modern Art, New York, with the director also flying down to Melbourne to appear at two discussion sessions open to the public.
The exhibition will feature over 700 works, including paintings, drawings, puppets, costumes, storyboards and film from Burton's various projects over the years.
ACMI's hosted a number of interesting and popular exhibitions, such as Pixar: 20 Years of Animation and Game On (and just the other day I went to see Adam Elliot's Mary and Max exhibition), though I think Burton's exhibition could attract the biggest attendance yet.
It's great to see ACMI drawing such international names and exhibitions to Melbourne, and similarly to last year with the National Gallery of Victoria's popular Salvador Dali exhibition, I think the Tim Burton retrospective will provide an invigorating boost for Melbourne's cultural scene.
