Museum of Modern Art Honors Tim Burton

The Museum of Modern Art in New York City held a gala event last night honoring the work of genius filmmaker Tim Burton. A-list stars such as the new Sexiest Man Alive Johnny Depp, Danny DeVito, Patti Smith and the Olsen twins were on hand to help celebrate Burton’s innovative career. Burton’s longtime partner Helena Bonham Carter was also in attendance. The event was part of MoMA’s Second Annual Film Benefit, with proceeds going to the museum’s Department of Film.
The tribute to Burton at MoMA features artwork from his films, early work from his student days, and never-before published pieces. It runs through April 26, 2010.
