THE ART OF CARS
Opening on March 29, 2008
Second Floor Hollywood Gallery
The Art of Cars exhibit gives film fans and art lovers a behind-the-scenes look at Pixar’s animated feature CARS (2006). Numerous pieces of original art will illustrate various phases of the movie’s development. Museum visitors will learn how computer software programs are used to create movement and how backgrounds, lighting and sound are added to create the final film. Also scheduled for display are two life-size depictions of the primary movie characters: Lightning McQueen and Mater. Together they show how Pixar combines art and technology to develop animated feature films that appeal to audiences of all ages.
Current exhibitions include La Vida Lowrider, Treasures of the Vault, NASCAR: 60 Years, the Hot Wheels® Hall of Fame, ALTERNATIVE POWER : Lessons from the Past, Inspiration for the Future AND the always fantastic permanent Hollywood Star Cars.
