Tim Burton, known for his distinctive creative style, effortlessly blends the macabre with humor to create visually stunning films. Lesser known are their origins – his drawings. Tim Burton’s illustrations pull you into a world that for all of its strangeness feels somehow familiar. It captures the essence of life’s absurdites. There is comfort in the sad, weird little beings that populate his imagination - a silent statement that it is ok to be different, and that it is ok to laugh at the oddness life brings us from birth. But his need to draw reaches far beyond his films. It permeates his life, his thoughts and observations flowing from pen and brush into his sketchbooks, which pile up, stuffed into every corner. For the first time, Burton has allowed his fans a broad look inside his private pages.
The Art of Tim Burton is the definitive compilation of forty years of Tim Burton’s artistry, including film concepts and hundreds of illustrations from his personal archives, edited under the creative guidance of Burton himself. This comprehensive 434 page book is grouped into thirteen chapters that examine common themes in Burton’s work, from his fascination with clowns to his passion for misunderstood monsters, to his delight in the oddities of people. Many of Burton’s friends and collaborators offer their thoughts, insight and anecdotes about Tim Burton’s style and artistic approach to life.
