LACMA

With works like Cronos, Mimic, The Devil’s Backbone, Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth, and Crimson Peak, Mexican author Guillermo del Toro has proved to have a fascination with darkness and an extraordinary eye for detail. His visually striking films and his unique vision has inspired the Los Angeles County Museum of Art to feature the filmmaker’s work in a major museum retrospective.

An upcoming LACMA exhibition will bring Guillermo del Toro’s legendary horror collection to the public for the first time.  “This morning I woke up in the Dickens room, which is a room that is dedicated to Dickens, and all the furniture is Dickensian and Victorian, and it’s surrounded by books from the Victorian era (…) and I exited through the Nosferatu corridor by pushing the secret painting on the wall into my kitchen.
