OAKLAND,
CA – The Oakland Museum of California (OMCA) will
present PIXAR: 25 Years
of Animation, a major
exhibition of over 500 works by the artists at Pixar Animation
Studios,
including drawings, paintings, and sculptures that illustrate the
creative
process and craftsmanship behind Pixar’s wildly successful
computer-animated films. This will be a
significantly
enhanced presentation of the exhibition, which is returning home
to
Oakland after a successful worldwide tour that began at the Museum
of
Modern Art in New York in 2005. A number of significant works will
be on
public display for the first time, including art from Ratatouille,
WALL•E, Up, and Pixar’s latest feature
film, Toy Story 3.   PIXAR will
also include an updated,
awe-inspiring version of the Pixar Artscape, a widescreen media
installation. On view from July 31, 2010 through January 9, 2011,
the
exhibition will be accompanied by screenings of Pixar’s feature
and short
films; a special program of lectures, talks and workshops with
Pixar
artists; and a new and expanded exhibition catalogue.
