Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the Tim Burton exhibit at MoMA yet, but I hope I get to. (I had to do a lot of work this weekend.) I just think that Tim Burton is a great artist/director/producer with his macabre yet comical imagry and his eccentricity. Although the only movie of his I know I saw was The Nightmare Before Christmas, I do hope one day to see Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, and Beetlejuice, among other movies.

The only piece I got to see so far was the piece in the lobby, "Balloon Boy" which reminded me of the meme of the same name. But I realized that the piece was probably invented before the meme since the event occurred on October 15, 2009, and the piece, even though it was also from 2009, was probably made before that, since art, especially a 15-foot-high inflatable sculpture, takes a long time to make. Either way, the connection I made of the art to the internet meme made me enjoy the work even more.

Now for your enjoyment, here's an early drawing of Edward Scissorhands:
