September Sundays Part II

We finally went to see the Tim Burton exhibition at ACMI. We tried to go a few weeks ago, but when we got there the line went around the corner! Our plan of attack quickly changed; we'll book online and bypass the queue - worked a treat.



It would have been great to be able to get photos inside the exhibition. The amount of drawings, paintings and stories that Burton has done over the years is incredible! Although a lot of his work focuses on macabre themes and subjects, none of it seems overly dark. He has a light hearted way of presenting distressing scenes, like people/creatures being beheaded or poisoned. Quite a talent really.
