Wes Anderson: The Archives

Video & Moving ImageDrawing & Works on PaperDesign

First retrospective of Wes Anderson's cinematic archive — 700+ objects across 30 years

4.4/5 from 5 ratings

"The Texan is the third film-maker to be given a retrospective at the Design Museum, following Stanley Kubrick and Tim Burton, and this is the pick of the three. Cinema like this can feel incredibly extravagant — some canine puppets for Isle of Dogs took three years to make and were on screen for a matter of seconds. Here, though, you can spend time with it all."
