From ancient cave drawings and hieroglyphics to paintings, murals, illustrations, comics, digital media, and sculptures, the museum will share the universal language of illustrated storytelling.
In addition to Luke’s X-34 Landspeeder from Star Wars: A New Hope, a 1:1 replica of General Grievous' TSMEU-6 Wheel Bike as seen in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, and a full-scale version of Anakin Skywalker’s N-1 Starfighter from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace will be on display. The collection will also house speeder bikes from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi
the collection includes the first drawing of Flash Gordon from 1934, original art for Marvel’s Iron Man’s debut comic cover from 1968, illustrations from Peanuts’ creator Charles M. Schulz, and paintings and other works from Norman Rockwell, Jack Kirby, N. C. Wyeth, Beatrix Potter, and Maxfield Parrish; as well as comic art legends such as Winsor McCay, Jack Kirby, and Frank Frazetta, just to name a few.
The Lucas Museum shows how narrative art influences societies—shaping beliefs, communicating values, inspiring imagination, and creating communities. It's goal is to empower people to engage with artworks through the compelling stories they tell.
Skip the first 7 minutes and 45 seconds to get to ANYTHING worth watching and listening to. Everything before that is FLUFF. At 7:45 the first actual q and a occurs.
It's impossible to tell if they will be hiring, but wow, if you live near enough to commute there for a job, it would be incredible to get a job in that new museum on day one.
