I don't mean to be an advertisement for the Museum of Modern of Art or anything, but last week I saw the Tim Burton exhibit there and it was AWESOME.
From the MoMA website:
"This exhibition explores the full range of [Tim Burton's] creative work, tracing the current of his visual imagination from early childhood drawings through his mature work in film. It brings together over seven hundred examples of rarely or never-before-seen drawings, paintings, photographs, moving image works, concept art, storyboards, puppets, maquettes, costumes, and cinematic ephemera from such films as Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Batman, Mars Attacks!, Ed Wood, and Beetlejuice, and from unrealized and little-known personal projects that reveal his talent as an artist, illustrator, photographer, and writer working in the spirit of Pop Surrealism."
The exhibit is there until April 26, and is totally worth the short wait in line if you don't have a timed ticket (which I didn't). Apparently they are required on weekends, and you can buy them with your ticket, which you can buy online here.
Seriously I'm not trying to advertise MoMA but this exhibit was just so good.

I'll have to check this out!! It looks cool... but are you sure you're not trying to advertise MoMA? Me thinks the lady doth protest too much! :)
This is such a cool idea especially with the Alice in Wonderland movie coming out. Wouldn't it be awesome to make a day of it in the city...see the exhibit and the movie?! Fun stuff! Great suggestion.
OMG!!! I was planning to go with my family, (really my mother was planning to go,)but we haven't had a chance yet. We are BIG Tim Burton fans in my house, and we can't wait to go. =]
